A guy who has called himself The Spam King is facing the wrath of MySpace.

The suit was filed in Los Angeles U.S. District Court and MySpace is asking for damages under the federal Can-Spam law in addition to California anti-spam laws. MySpace is also asking for a permanent injunction which would prevent Richter and his employees from using MySpace. Richter would also be forced to repay all profits he made from the spam emails.

MySpace says Richter used phishing emails, fake emails asking for usernames and passwords, to gather login information. Allegedly, Richter then used the accounts to send millions of emails selling products.
