According to some newsgroups and various (unconfirmed places), this guy had to pay $1000 a pop to each person he spammed back in the day.
Below is his email if you want to spam him.

Since the victory in the courts, the name Benchmark Print Supply has disappeared from the e-mail inbox. In 2001 though, a number of new spamverts for toners started to appear. It will be interesting to see if the same spammer is at work using a different name... 
Fellow anti-spammer Kathy writes (December 6th 2001) that "Benchmark is back!": 
"I just spoke with the order line asking 'did you recently change your name' to which was responded 'yes'. I then asked 'what was your previous name' to which he responded 'Benchmark'." 
The spam is from 'VORTEX SUPPLIES' and the contact details are given as:
