Redswitches.com & 1and1.com – unresponsive to SEO spammer complaints

[A440]

I have been getting SEO spam from a narrow range of IP addresses that point back to this vendor, [red]redswitches.com[/red]. Other than that, they all have the common link of having reply email addresses that point to a Chinese portal.

The spam is as so:

Remember! It won't sell if nobody knows you have it.

[red]Redswitches[/red] has been repeatedly unresponsive to direct reports that cite these TOS violations and should be labeled as untrustworthy at this point.

Please review this and rate accordingly here.

Additionally, [red]1and1.com[/red] most certainly should be rated [red]red[/red] (link for rating here)due to the now many phish and spam that originate from their IP space that point to "My Canadian Pharmacy" sites through hacked sites that are hosting links.
Complaints to [red]1and1.com[/red] have gone unanswered and rejected.
I must consider this business to be a hostile site, here on in.
Here is just one sample:

It also seems that [red]1and1.com[/red] has a bad history of untrustworthy activity.
The last account (listed below) even includes a story of how these scammers demand a credit card for a "free trial" and end up putting charges on the unsuspecting mark's card. This is very similar to the common online streaming scam sites but with potentially worse results:

As far as 1and1.com is concerned, already handled because of another issue.

For anyone familiar with HTML attributes, many of the HTML tags include fake, possibly joke, attributes - excommunicating='excitation', ghastly=5, absconding="deeming", and the like. These fake attributes serve as a signature of a recent flood of spam, spoofed as notifications from Google+, Whatsapp, Youtube, and others, that links to malware, regardless of whatever else they may be hawking.
