Roughly a billion emails promoted overpriced face masks with misleading claims. The man selling them says it isn't his fault.

YouTube / ViaThrough corporate LLCs, including Racine Assets, Cash Flow Lead Gen, and Direct Mailers, Evans operates a large network of conservative sites and email newsletters. BuzzFeed News and George Washington University found Evans’ sites were some of the most prolific senders of SafeMask promotions.

“It’s taken years of trust to build that up and to find the right advertisers that will speak to our subscribers without annoying people,” he said. Evangelisti did not reply to follow-up emails asking about the mask and wipe ads and whether his company earned a commission on purchases.A third conservative email list operator who promoted SafeMask is Jake Spaulding, a 22-year-old living in Huntsville, Texas, roughly an hour north of Houston. Spaulding, who said he knows Evangelisti and has met Evans, told BuzzFeed News he expanded into conservative email marketing last year with the creation of Spaulding Publishing.
