Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Many states have laws that specifically prohibit false and deceptive e-mailing practices, such as sending misleading subject lines or disguising the true source of the e-mail. These laws apply to both Great Looks and Hot Trends, as they are engaged in commercial e-mailing practices. It is unlikely that any state requires the use of spam by business entities, and some states may ban the use of spam altogether. However, the question does not provide enough information to determine this definitively. There is no indication that state laws preempt the application of federal law to commercial e-mail.
