Great American Photo Contest Lure people to website so they can bombard you with spam Internet

I went to this website around February 19, because my cousin had entered her baby in the photo contest. It was annoying, because in order to vote for him, you had to register, and go through a list of offers, and click either yes or no. You were required to click at least one, so I chose one and clicked no on all the others.
Ever since then, I have been bombarded with emails, from the companies I explicity checked "no" on, plus many others. I get close to 30 spam emails a day now.
The kicker however is that now some of these companies are starting to call my phone, too. My phone is a cell, so it costs me money to answer it when they call during the daytime hours. Plus, I am a night worker, so the calls wake me up (I like to leave my phone on, in case of emergency).
I went back to this website, and clicked on the "contact us" link, but it wasn't a valid link. The same page just reloaded. I am quite upset and frustrated with these people.
