bad name. You could have asked a question on Lugnet such as "Has anyone heard
of a guy named Helge Viker? Is he a good dealer in Lego?" That would have been
much nicer and still would have alerted the Lego user community of the email
you received from him.

me unwanted E-mail.

Also he may be a good dealer but that doesn't mean I want his E-mail.  In my
view this was just a version of SPAM and I have no respect for Spamers and I
have no problem with publicly scolding Helge for his inappropriate
solicitations.
