We have about 15 reports daily to them, here some proof that they are ALL not working.

Like this for example - yes, not a formally defined abuse contact field, but they are so insistent that they should only receive spam reports at abuse@chello.pl
Unfortunately - that address doesn't exist. If someone from Chello could please contact me about nigerians who keep abusing what is likely an open proxy at 89.70.30.128 I'd be obliged
