Somebody is selling a mortgage spamming kit on eBay. (OK, he's actually calling it a Real-time mortgage lead Delivery 
and filter system.)

The seller, who says his name is Jason Pitts and claims to live in Tucson, Arizona, wants no less than $6,000 for some 
website forms and a database of thousands of "mortgage lead buyers," and a similar amount of "recent mortgage leads." 
(I especially like the little "We are compliant with CAN-SPAM" graphic that comes with the package.)

The auction appears to be some kind of going-out-of business fire sale, maybe because Pitts got listed on the Spamhaus 
Register of Known Spam Operations.
