Turns out the porn-spam mom isn't a mom after all. MommyJobs.com operator Jennfier Clason has posted a detailed entry 
at her site about her stint in the porn-spam business. One of her "come clean" revelations: she doesn't actually have 
any children.

The web posting essentially confirms the key details of Clason's recent plea agreement(PDF file). E.g., she managed 
porn websites from 1999 -2003 for James R. Schaffer, who operated a company called Diamond International. Schaffer also 
partnered with Jeffrey Kilbride.

In January of 2004, Clason learned how to use a spam program capable of sending spam from a remote server in Amsterdam. 
Starting in April 2004, she sent millions of spams that included embedded pornographic images and used falsified "from" 
lines. AOL received over 600,000 complaints about the spams from January-June, 2004. Clason was paid around $30,000 for 
her work.
