This was my ressponse to their email (and cc to ITS and Loadlink)

REMOVE US FROM YOUR EMAIL LIST IMMEDIATELY...

WE DO NOT APPRECIATE ANY COMPANY THAT WOULD SOLICIT BY BLANKET EMAIL TO OUR EMPLOYEES WITHOUT 1ST GETTING AUTHORIZATION FROM MANAGEMENT. IT SHOWS HOW COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL YOUR COMPANY IS.

I WILL ALSO BE FORWARDING YOUR EMAIL TO ALL THE LOAD BOARDS AND BLOGS WARNING THEM OF YOUR UNSCRUPULOUS ACTIONS.

Load board customer service:

Please make all your clients (the people who pay you) aware that this company is soliciting their employees un-ethically through blanket emails.
If there is a way to block them from all load boards to protect the good companies, please advise.
Thank you for your support in this matter.
