How do I get "Cron Daemon" to stop spamming me?

I don't know who is doing this but I keep getting spammed by Cron Daemon every 5 minutes for the past week. I filter it to my spam folder but I still hate that it is still spamming me. This is what I keep getting spammed with below..

subject:Cron <gcccom@gcc> php /home/gcccom/public_html/cron.phpmailed-by:gcc.gcc.com.sa

Well, if you are going to question the validity of spam email, then the entire internet, as we know it, has to be called into question!
 
Check your /etc/crontab there is probably a job running every 5 minutes. I usually setup a separate email for those. Looks like your web host is not setup, did you recently get a web hosting account or something? Maybe there's some kind of default example job or something.
 
Now THAT is funny! Sounds like an interesting way to spam the crap out of someone too. Muhahahahaha!

Yeah DDoS gcc.gcc.com.sa or E-mail root@gcc.gcc.com.sa and tell them to change the E-mail in the cron.

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

root@gcc.gcc.com.sa
retry timeout exceeded

Action: failed
Final-Recipient: rfc822;root@gcc.gcc.com.sa
Status: 5.0.0

any other ideas?
 
So far I have emailed them and forwarded back the spam messages back to their sales department and neither worked.

Is there any way I can hack into their cpanel and remove my name?

gcc.gcc.com.sa:2083 has their cpanel login screen

You can download metasploit and try to hax0r their server.

Okay, the domain is in Arabic, but I see they have the business of Gulf Computer Center. Their phone number is: +966 13 899 1621

They are in Saudi Arabia with an address of: Dossary Tower, King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz Street, Khobar Saudi Arabia

Now, I'm willing to bet not a single person there speaks English. But, BUT! My uncle is Egyptian and I can ask him if the dialect is the same and perhaps I can get him to call this place and end the cron job for your E-mail. He's in Egypt now.

Maybe they do speak English! 😀
