01o.com belongs to Britemoon, Inc. A quick websearch brings up mentions of Britemoon as a spammer, which is why I'm wondering if Qwest might not have hired them for this. Is it common for a known spammer to go into the phishing business?
According to here, http://www.britemoon.com/about/index3.html, Qwest is one of their clients. Britemoon probably does their email marketing. I came across the same thing with Consumer Reports when I confirmed that they were using a DoubleClick subsidiary to do their "email marketing", aka spamming.
NANAS has lots of hits for this guy. Joe Lucas. He send UBE/UCE on behalf of large businesses like Days Inn, Fedex, Qwest, ect.......
But it is spam, as they buy lists to send to and there is no opt-in. Not even close to double opt-in :)
