I recently got about 15 "Confirm your subscription" emails saying that at such and such time I entered my email address to receive this porn mail. Most of them from big adult companies who offer per-email affiliate programs.
The funny thing is, whoever did this used a non-existant email address that got bounced to the catchall account on one of my domains. Of course, I notified the affiliate programs and they were greatful to bust this cheater.
THE KICKER THOUGH, is that even though I of course never confiemd any of these subscriptions, I am STILL receiving the emails for these lists that I never signed up for.
Hmmmmm.....
Very fuckin interesting. I also want to reiterate, these emails are not coming from 'spammers', they are coming from a few of the biggest adult affiliate programs out there.
Fuckin cheaters increasing the size of my inbox and gettin' paid for it, while screwing over affiliate programs at the same time.
And fuckin affiliate programs, continuing to send me email even though I never confirmed (Even though legit affiliates only get paid for confirmed emails ...)
