Obetrol in action

Obetrol is a perl script by Meepsheep of the Gay Nigger Association of America that will rape your email inbox into next year by registering it for over 9000 newsletters, mailing lists, and various other services, usually under a offensive name. It is named after a methamphetamine weight loss pill that your grandma probably took in the 60s.

Public Reactions

Corporate Reactions

A number of corporations have also been pressured into issuing public apologies as a result of Obetrol using their services to send out thousands — and in some cases, hundreds of thousands — of offensive emails to unsuspecting individuals. Some of these include, but are not limited to:

Carvana

From: Carvana <[email protected]> Subject: Message from Carvana Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2019 18:30:07 -0500 (CDT)

Hello,

Unfortunately we believe that earlier today you received an email from Carvana containing offensive language in the subject line, and we wanted to apologize; we do not tolerate that kind of language and would never communicate with our customers in that way. When investigating the source, we discovered that a bad actor unaffiliated with Carvana had created a handful of fake accounts using email addresses like yours.

We have identified and isolated the issue, and we are extremely sorry this happened and that you were affected. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at 1-800-333-4554 or [email protected].

Thank You,

Carvana 1930 W Rio Salado Pkwy /// Tempe AZ 85281 P: 800-333-4554


Robinhood

From: Robinhood <[email protected]> Subject: Regarding Our Recent Email Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2019 23:18:42 +0000 (UTC)

Hello,

Earlier this morning, multiple applications were started on the Robinhood platform using fake names and real email addresses—including your email address.

Our system sends automatic email reminders to applicants with unfinished applications. You may have seen this email earlier today and, if so, we're very sorry for your experience.

We want to let you know that our team has stopped this activity and is actively working to help prevent a similar situation from happening again.

This is not in line with the experience we want anyone to have with Robinhood, especially as a first impression. We’re deeply sorry about this.

As a corrective action, we will close the unfinished application attached to your email address so you should not receive any communications from us going forward about the application.

Please let our team know if you have any concerns or questions. We’re here to help.
