The UK data regulator has fined American Express (Amex) ..90,000 for sending over 4 million spam emails to customers within one year. The UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) found that Amex had sent over 50 million, of what it classed as, servicing emails to its customers. Complaints showed the messages were instead direct marketing emails sent to customers who opted out. Amex can pay this fine by June 17 and, if the fine is made in advance, it will also reduce it by 20% to ..72,000.
