I rarely do posts that are simply links to stories but I thought it was important in this case. Given the number of times I’ve threatened murderous retribution on spammers, I thought it was important to point out that I didn’t do this.
I’ve heard that decent humans don’t celebrate the death of another human no matter how much they despised them. So I won’t celebrate this. But I won’t shed tears, either. And as the story mentions he isn’t the first Russian spammer to be murdered – those interested in cathartic reading can check out some details here.
As for me, I’m busy getting witness statements swearing that I haven’t left the country recently.

There are so many suspects! It’s the Who Shot J.R. from hell. He must have been on at least half a billion shit lists.
Also, holy shit. How is one man responsible for that much spam?
What you should have said:
I have never killed a man, but I read Alexey Tolstokozhev’s obituary with great pleasure…
To paraphrase Chris Rock…
“I’m not saying they should have killed him… but I understand.”
Surely this is the risk one takes when embarking on a life of spam. Each time he was about to hit send, he must have thought to himself, “Well … it is wrong, but I could really use the rubles for that new pair of jeans. So what the hell?”
