Nearly all sponsors will cut you off (and many refuse to pay you what they already owe you) if you spam via a method that is not double opt in.

You don't require any form of traditional opt-in proof under can-spam laws... If these people are requesting any form of legal service or product they now have a business relationship with Hijaker and as far as can-spam is concerned, are just fine to mail to.

Sponsors beg for mail traffic... dont kid yourself that many programs refuse this sort fo traffic... Send emails to 10 of the biggest programs asking if they want your traffic... you WILL get 5 answers back with bullet proof hosted URLs to send your email traffic to.

The only problem he would have sending email to that list is complaints going to the host he sends email from.. and that isnt a hard problem to solve with money.



Hijaker.... If you can so easilly attract 400k clicks per day.. I personally wouldnt be trying to fuck about with emailling. But If you can show you are collecting 50-100k addresses per month, I would contact a few of the active email buying programs and do a deal for them to pre-pay buy the emails in bulk.. and let them tell you what collection box and terms they want... I would expect to get between 10-50 cents per name like that as a rough guide.

All of that is kind of academic if your site is promising people access to stolen passwords or illegal content though.... which is what I suspect you must be doing to have the numbers you claim.
