Stupid e-commerce trick

yesthattomWhen you unsubscribe from CompUSA.com’s junk mail, the web site generates this nice web page that says, “Status: You have been removed from the mailing list”. However, the message is part of the URL. Hmm... they wouldn’t be so stupid as to let people modify the URL to say anything they wanted, would they?
Now children, please don’t open up a can of worms by doing something like this or even worse!
Keep it clean, kids!
