Anyone else getting this? i got one today, i suspect its going to be another one of those "hi5" type networking gigs where they harvest mail addresses, spam the shit out of you, then sell you off to spammers.

link1, example. looks like they are making themselves known in a bad way.

You have viewed the email...

The email was generated from a website.

The address of the URL was unique to YOUR email address...

Therefore confirming that your email address is valid.

You are now a valid "spammable" email address...

Thank you for your time, have a nice day

But seriously for a sec.... Like you I have several email accounts, one for spam, one for product and website registrations and one for my personal mail....

My spam mailbox gets more than 100 messages a day now..... I change it from time to time too otherwise it would be more along the lines of 3-400.....

People are just so damed greedy it shits me........... And other people out there are so stupid that the spam continues...


The next generation of spam will be VOIP spam.... Because VOIP phones dont cost anything to reach over the net, you will soon have to switch your phone off at night sothat you can sleep the night through........ or else risk getting an automated message telling you that you need to take some viagra....... And every morning you will clear your message bank of 30 or so annonymous messages from people trying to peddle their crap....

And dont think its going to stop at VOIP, as voip becomes more common, people are beginning to put in gateways to SLT's..... you will soon be getting spam even on your normal phone.....

Grrrrrrrrrrrr

This is why they gave us Delete buttons

stereo, one word, ugh...
fax junkmail has been rampant in hongkong for years, my old work used to get them every night because we ad a hongkong faxnumber permenantly forwarded to our sydney office.

oh and mick, yeah i know, but still i was just asking.

well it looks like people know how to use cut and paste more than delete.

I have a good ISP who does all the hard yards, my 1 and only e-mail account gets maybe 5 spam messages per week in a bad week......

What's spam?

Another good reason for not having that Neural implant though.
