    SEGuru, why am I being spammed by you?!?

    Just got an e-mail to my webmaster address, I never submitted it to SEGuru.net, so you must obviously have purchased a list from some less honest sponsor. You just stooped to the levels of any low-life spammer, if I ever had any respect for you it's long gone now.

    BTW, the unsubscribe link goes to seguru.net, just in case you feel like blaming it on one of your affiliates.

      I got the spam too, but it doesn't bother me. That's what the delete button is for.
      I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
      I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

        Yeah, just read that thread... I'm curiously awaiting an explanation. Business must be real slow lately...

          DamageX - if you lose respect for someone that easy then what are you still doing in this biz?
          Everyone in this biz does business with everyone else and cross-mailing is an everyday fact of business.

            I guess SeGuru is not good enough to get SE or other legit traffic to his site, so he has to jam it down our throats like any common, low-life spammer selling other worthless products and services.
            Whatever credibility he might have had is gone now.

            I never buy Spamvertised products so I'll add his domain to my local block list. Perhaps he deserves a nice new shiny Spamcop and Net.Abuse.Sightings listing too as a bonus.

                he definitely got his hands on a bad list.

                Im trying to figure out what could possibly be the source. Two of them were the webmaster@ addresses for domains i have that used to be link sites about 3 years ago.

                I think the only places those might have been submitted are a couple other link sites and dmoz.

                    As for Zebra and Brisk comment , the excuse of "use the delete" key" or "everybody's spamming" is typical of the many on this board who profit from or spam the shit of us and everyone else directly.

                    UCE is lowest form of marketing, and spammers are the lowest form of life in this Biz.

                      I don't know how people like you survive. Open a real business and guess what... You get phonecalls and mail from other businesses every single day of the week. Hell when you file for a corp the gov. sells your info.

                            Judging by this thread , people do care about SPAM, especially being dumped upon from another adult webmaster.I don't buy products from UNSOLICITED sources, whether it be email, phone or snail mail.

                            You're just another spam apologist which make you a typical GFY member. And people wonder why thiz biz is under scrutiny by the feds. Don't blame Bush or Ash-U-KNow_Who. Just look in a fucking mirror.

                              I don't spam. I also don't get pissy if my business associates inform me of something that's going on.

                                          DamageX -- lets just put this rumor to rest right now. I have NEVER sold, traded, or given anyone my webmaster mailing list. Not once.

                                          However, it does appear that there is a copy of it floating about, and when I find out how it got out, there will be hell to pay.

                                            why dont u lick my left nutsack with sandpaper,

                                            stop excusing mass mailing, its not a fact of everyday biz, why do u think things like the do not call registry have been created? why?

                                              I'd just like to say a hearty fuck you to SEGuru for that lame ass spam I got to multiple domains. Your fucking opt out shit was password protected, so in the spirit of things.

                                              GO FUCK YOURSELF, asshole!

                                                It was not the lightspeed list, since I'm on it and didn't get that email.

                                                  stop excusing mass mailing, its not a fact of everyday biz, why do u think things like the do not call registry have been created? why?

                                                  to stop low life businessmen that use stupid excuses to force their product down everyone throat,
                                                  I totally agree

                                                    I'll second that, I get occasional spams sent to an address used to sign up only at lightspeed (the spammers got the addresses because they stuffed up a webmaster mailout and clear cc'd everyone), but the spam from seguru did NOT go to that address. At this stage I do not think that the list originated from lightspeed.

                                                    I'd be interested to know if he's spamming anyone and everyone in the hope that a small percentage of the recipients are webmasters, or he actually has a webmaster list pulled from somewhere...

                                                        However, it does appear that there is a copy of it floating about, and when I find out how it got out, there will be hell to pay.

                                                        Steve Lightspeed

                                                        then i dont get why you let seguru spam a list stolen from you?
                                                        (as some guys meantioned they got the email to an lightspeed@domain addy)
                                                        if you suppose or cannot exclude it was your list then why are you not going after him....
                                                        you let everyone steal you property and then let him run with it??


                                                        how about a little investigation?

                                                        i hope you do that!

                                                                    I'm pretty sure its not from lightspeed (but I haven't checked to see if I signed up to them with this old e-mail)
                                                                    I got their SPAM on two seperate emails. One definetely seems to from a sponsor list, the other I don't know about. Perhaps he is using multiple lists.

                                                                    Also SeGuru chose a SPAM friendly host. The email server is already on the Spamcop blocklist . His webhost and email server are both hosted hostcloud.com/pago.net so if he uses the "rougue affiliate" excuse , he is full of it.
