I pulled this from the "blacklist" of people that spam repeatedly to
news/mail lists/etc..

ID: KL950105
Name: Kevin Jay Lipsitz a.k.a. Krazy Kevin
Address: 350 Richmond Terrace #5-P, Staten Island, NY 10301
PO Box 990, Staten Island, NY 10312
Phone: 718-967-1234, 718-967-1550 (fax),
718-967-1144 (fax)
Email: krazykev(_at_)escape(_dot_)com, krazykev(_at_)kjl(_dot_)com
lipsitz(_at_)ingress(_dot_)com
Entered: 1995/01/05
Changed: 1995/10/30
Behavior: Spammed almost the whole usenet repeatedly with anonymous
ads (Hi, my name is Anne Nelson...") for a long distance
calling plan. He was warned by the admin of the anon server,
then lost his account there and did it again with a new account.
He told me on the phone that a company called
Card Call USA, INC.
6232 N. 7th ST. #109
Phoenix, AZ 85014
Phone: 602-264-7000
Fax: 602-266-0687
uses a pyramid-like promotion scheme where every customer
gets a commission for each new customer they bring and in turn
for each new customer these new ones bring and so on up to
level 7.
Kevin Lipsitz is a customer of Card Call USA and tries to
bring new customers to get these commissions.
His using the anon server is evidence enough that he
knew that he was doing something wrong.
Incidentally, he sent me the membership application for CC
USA. Point #6 of the contract, which Kevin most probably
signed, reads:
"6. I agree to operate in a lawful, ethical, and moral manner
and to do nothing that will adversely reflect upon CCUSAI, its
clients or its other Independent Sales Representatives. I
understand that any act deemed by CCUSAI to be detrimental to
CCUSAI, in any manner, is grounds for the termination of my
status as Independent Sales Representative and all corresponding
commissions."
As of 1995/02/20, he uses the new e-mail address at escape.com.
On 1995/02/26, he anon-spammed again, this time advertising
his magazine club.
It occurred again on 1995/03/04.
As of 1995/04/28, he owns his own domain kjl.com. This is
nothing but a bunch of mailboxes on escape.com. Apparently,
escape got tired of the complaints. Complaints should
properly go to root(_at_)escape(_dot_)com, since
root(_at_)kjl(_dot_)com is Kevin
himself.
He is also the source of the ubiquitous "===>> World's
*Cheapest* Way to get USA Magazine Subscriptions..."
postings. There have been complaints that he doesn't deliver
all ordered magazines. He has started to send his ads to
mailing lists also.
Remarks: I tracked him down by answering to one of his ads using an
old e-mail address, to which he promptly responded.
The second time, I responded again to his anon ad, and he
apparently recognized me and tried to harass me over the
phone. Next was a truly pathetic first attempt at
mailbombing. [Kevin, next time pick an ftpmail service
without per day traffic limits, jeeez]
His account on panix.com is no more.
An excellent analysis of one of his recent postings
and lots of personal information about him is at

Recently, several articles about him, including cancel
reports, have been canceled from news.admin.net-abuse.misc.
