What can I do when I keep getting spammed (GreetKing) despite opt-out?

I don't know where else to really post this, but it's been annoying me. I opted out of their list on several of my email addresses (apparently they have bought every list in existence), but I keep getting stuff from them. They even have the nerve to put the name (albeit fake) that I put in when I opted out. Has anyone else had this problem with these guys? I believe they're associated with Ubid in some way, but I can't remember why I think that. Most spam doesn't bother me too much, and most of it doesn't offer an opt-out anyway, but when I keep getting spammed by a company that seems to be legit, it seems odd. Is there anything I can do about this other than the usual like blocking them? Thanks for any suggestions.

try to email someone in the company that would do something.

i used to get massive spam from X10.com despite my constant attempts to unsubscribe. I finally emailed them cursing them out and the mail stopped. :)

Try some spam hunter sites, I only know of one, spamcop.com -- but you should be able to find some more in Yahoo's directory.

Heh, maybe that's a good idea. I'm not really fond of sending these losers a list of my email addresses, though. Thanks for the suggestions.

Edit: Good idea konichiwa, I'll check that out.
