The trick is to give them a throwaway email address that you just
created on hotmail/yahoo/etc. a few minutes before you gave it to
them.  Then once you get the necessary info from that mailbox, you
just ignore it and let it expire from lack of use ;-).

I used a broker for the Gorge in 2000 and I was getting snailspam from
them for weeks afterwards until I called them up and told them to
knock it off.  They seem to think that just because I bought one
ticket from them in 2000, that I want to hear about every single
concert for which they scab tickets.
