    Why is Braincash Spamming Me?

    Or why did they sell my email adress to spammers.
    When I signup for a program I usually use [email protected]

    so when I recieve spam like this:

    Hello
    I was like you, Looking all over the net for free porn, But is it possible to get this without paying ? I mean who wants to pay for porn on the internet these days, I found it hard to find a decent site without all the spam and lame popups you get, So i searched and searched and eventualy i decided to make my own site, I made a place where you can come and get free (yes free) usernames and passwords to adult pay sites all over the internet, My forums now have usernames/passwords to the most well known sites for example bangbus, adultbouncer, deluxepass, cumfiesta, all the top sites and all you have to do is login and get it all free ...

    Try any of our top forums -

    ......
    ......
    ..to my braincash@domainname email it really makes me wonder why they would risk losing clients over that?

                          well... all I know is that I didn't post the email adress I used when signing up with them on any website and I find it hard to believe that spammers randomly sent out an email to [email protected]

                          This is like the matrixcontent / acacia thing back in the day... anyone remember
                          this looks like they either spammed themselves, sold the list or got em stolen... someone of that.. or is there another option?

                            Maybe some smartass Spammer just made himself a list out of popular domain names combined with popular affiliate programs, f.e. not only [email protected] but also [email protected], [email protected] etc.??

                            Would be a task of just a few minutes and it's already well known that many webmasters use that kind of unique emails.

                              Its very easy to get tons of private/unpublished emails with the right tools and without hacking.

                                doesnt make sense why they would target webmasters though. They got hacked
                                SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                  Maybe revenge?

                                  Spammer spammed Braincashs Sites, got his Account deleted and now as revenge he tries to damage the reputation of Braincash by sending out emails to [email protected], or something like that.

                                        I set up my affiliate e-mails as [email protected] and there is no way that a spammer is going to figure it out. I always add random numbers.
                                        I am getting spam dumped into my braincash e-mail account too. They are either selling the e-mails (doubtful), a database got hacked (most likely), or an employee grabbed them.
                                        Do you notice this all happened during the MPA - NATS rollover?

                                        But the clueless idiot sheep will continue to say they didn't do it, NO WAY, BRAINCASH IS CLEAN! Yeah right!

                                          well I wanted to post this to get a 3rd and neutral opinion... the chance that some spammer randomly sends out and email with [email protected] to spam is VERY VERY unlikely. The domain I used for the email has only 2 inbound links, a PR1 does not recieve and traffic and recieved 2 spam mails a month max...
                                          I really want to know what is going on... I am really sure (in case you did not send the mail) that someone got access to your data. I hope that you understand that just because you got the same spam doesn't make me feel better...

                                          looking forward to your info.

                                              I do the same thing when I sign up for programs.

                                              I was getting a bunch to the Sextronix email I used to sign up with them.

                                              I sent them an email with questions and they haven't responded, BUT the emails have stopped...

                                              The email I received was for penis pills 'super viagra' with links to medztabz.biz and upower.info

                                                      This shit annoys me too. I've got a list of programs that I get spammed from pretty much daily. Maybe I should actually start talking to some of these people.
                                                      I do PHP, bitch.

                                                        You're better off posting it on this board, now that the forum has been made aware.
