This is my truth

Rene, now with added é

It appears that Vanessa Holmes isn't the only working girl at the Belmont bordello to foresake verify-live links for a MailWizz tracking image tag. Rene/René Brinley is also using this skeevy tactic.

In the past, she's advised a reply with unsubscribe in the subject line. But I didn't go so far as to check the HTML for other address validation techniques.

And then there's the other dodgy stuff: multiple domain names; crappy English and gobbledegook; unwarranted flattery; unspecific inclusion criteria;* urgency. You know the drill.
