Exclamation No "Free Anything" link Threads

Spammers Beware!

If you are low enough to Post Spam links on our Forums, the following action will be taken:

The email address you used to verify your membership will be passed on to an anti-spam Group who will forward you tons of Spam

Your IP adress is logged and an official complaint will be logged to your ISP




Enough is enough, it seems that I have to delete this kind of spam on a daily basis.

Seriously, I think all YM Members have had enough of this kind of SPAM!
We do not deserve this!

I agree and I think they should take people that send Spam and start having public stoning again!!!!!!!!!!!! I will cast the first stone!!!!!! The more forms I subscribe to the more Spam I get!!!! I do not read it I just delete it!!!!
There are places to forward Spam and if they are caught they will be prosecuted!

A few months ago I signed up to get a Free Media Player. Well I had to get 10 pple to get it. I made 5 fake email addresses and I used mine. Bad mistake. I now get over 20 spam emails everyday. "Free Valium, Free Software." Also the amount of spam that is out there is 85% of all emails. 85%!!!

If there was no spam, we could play Unreal 2004 with a 56k. What a world we live in.

I got mine. I signed up for stamps.com for two months then cancelled. I think I got something like $20 in free postage when I signed up so it wasn't a total waste.

A friend of mine got a free Ipod in the mail due to www.freeipods.com
But it's kinda hard unless you have a lot of friends.

Spam Attack...

Did anybody see the Spam attack at around midnight last night? A moderator thankfully erased them. Someone named lara posted them. "Free Ipods, win 1 million."

This stuff is stupid!

Spam

It's insane, the spammers attack Forums a lot nowdays
What I do is get their verified email address from the Mod section - remember a person needs a valid email addy to register.

I then pass this email addy on to a freind of mine who accumulates them and passes them to mail spammers as a form of revenge - not for financial gain
I also take the logged IP addy and run Port Scanners on them to see if their systems are exploitable.

It's justified these spammers are the lowest of the low....
