Any other former Yahoo profile / interests / group spammers here? Damn I have some stories.

It's been a long time but damn I had fun with Yahoo. I took advantage of many loopholes before people knew they existed and had software stolen that caused them to shut down entire sections of their site.

The only thing I never figured out was how that asshole got all of the Yahoo names that started with a capital letter and therefore showed up at at the top of every damn search. I even tried signing up with similar names on the foreign Yahoo sites but never figured it out. Regular profiles are dead, was it someone here.

How the hell did you do it?

I can't imagine what some of the guys running bigger operations were doing, but I had a nice little one going with three machines that brought in close to $1500 a day from dialers.

I didn't want to get greedy and ruin it by ramping it up, but it eventually slooooowed down to the point where it wasn't worth keeping up with it.

Yeah, I missed out on a shitload of money back then because I didn't know more than basic HTML. I don't know a whole lot more than that now but at least I know where to find people that do.

These were straight up links to dialers. No HTML landing pages needed.

If you were doing any of the things I was doing I'm sorry for breaking some of them! One thing Yahoo was good as was fucking with certain things to screw you up. I never did chat but saw that it was getting killed as well.
