North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper filed suit last week against a man Cooper alleges sent hundreds of illegal e-mails falsely claiming his product would increase fuel efficiency.
According to Cooper, between Jan. 25 2004 and March 30 2004 Michael Abbott, of Rockwell, N.C. sent an unspecified number of unsolicited e-mails promoting a product called alternately Super FuelMax and Fuel Saver Pro to 742 e-mail addresses, 179 of which were spam traps set up as Hotmail accounts by Microsoft Corp.
