Sanford Wallace is called the 'Spam King'. During the 1990s, he had a company called Cyber Promotions, which helped other companies to advertise their products by email. He did this by sending about 30 million 'junk emails' every day. Many people were very angry when they received enormous numbers of email advertisements, but Wallace hadn't done anything illegal. Then, in 2009, Wallace sent emails to 14 million Facebook users. The emails directed them to other websites that paid Wallace for eac visit. That was illegal and he was told by the courts to pay Facebook $711 million.
