DonTx Posted June 1, 2004 Report Share Posted June 1, 2004 Do you get a lot of junk faxes? I do. I found this site where you can send your junk faxes and they will give you a portion of the settlement up to 25 bucks. I know these snakes (law office) will make a lot more on the faxes, but heck, at least we're getting something for all the toner these junk faxes use. The website is www.faxwars.com We just sent them 60 faxes. It will be interesting to see how this turns out. If anyone has used them, I'd be interested in knowing how it turned out.

chrisprickett Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 My wife told me this trick. It only works if you have the fax number of the company that sends you the junk fax. Get a piece of black construction paper (or two or three or ten!) and fax it back to the sender. It will eat up so much toner, that they will likely get the hint!

kurt Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Chris, that trick is old. Most of these ass----- are computer driven faxes, i.e., no toner, & automatic deletion of response(s). I don't know how to get rid of this crap, but I wish I could; it clogs up my computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottpat Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 You can got to the FTC website and report them, I sent in dozens last year. I don't know how it works but I seldom get one now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Keady Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 About six months ago, I started responding to the unsubscribe numbers appearing at the bottom of the FAXes. It must have worked because I now get maybe one a week instead of ten or so per day. A lot of the tool free numbers at the bottom were the same for different vendors, a FAXing service!
