Anyone else notice the volume of SPAM is going down?
 
I'm really starting to see a downward trend in my daily load of bullshit e-mails.

Anyone else notice this with theirs?

Its about time!

FTVGirls 01-04-2004 08:19 PM

I dont know... ive been seeing a rise in the cheezy "free cable TV" and "banned CD" type spams. True though, less porn spam.

Noticed less porn related spam but still getting a hell of a lot of spam. :(

Mutt 01-04-2004 08:22 PM

mine has been WAY down since Christmas Eve Day - surprised me, I expected it to be back at it's usualy 300-400 a day level again January 2nd but so far it's still way down.

Why is this? Can't just be spammers taking a long holiday season - is it the CAN-SPAM law going into effect as well?

Theo 01-04-2004 08:22 PM

no drop here

free cable is indeed the no1 category at the moment.I'm getting like 25/day only for this.

Mutt 01-04-2004 08:24 PM

yeah the penis pills and patches is now the worst, more than porn sites.

more money in penis pill fraud these days than porn - what program are all these mainstream spammers with the bogus pills etc affiliated with?

The Truth Hurts 01-04-2004 08:27 PM

My spam has quadrupled over the past 2 months.
1/3 of it is for cyalus.
I have no fucking clue what cyalus is.
1/3 has paris hilton written in it somewhere usually with intentional typo's.
I wouldn't fuck paris hilton with Serges cock.

and the rest is regular crap... penis enlargement, mortgages, etc..

rebel23 01-04-2004 08:28 PM

spamcop is 30 bucks a year and you can filter your mail through it , tempting

Pleasurepays 01-04-2004 08:39 PM

SomeCreep 01-04-2004 08:52 PM

MetaMan 01-04-2004 08:53 PM

I'm afraid that the volume will pick up once spammers find out that there's a 120 day grace period prescribed by law for the FTC to get its act together and issue regulations. There's a comment period after the proposed regs are featured in the Federal Register.

TDJ 01-04-2004 09:07 PM

I'm running spamassassin on my mail servers, and it gets like 95% of the crap, and moves it into my spambox. Havent noticed the #'s going down though.

I highly recommend it. :thumbsup

xxxoutsourcing 01-04-2004 09:54 PM

Yea thank god!

Luc 01-05-2004 12:09 AM

ehh, i dunno about that bro. i'm still getting hammered with this shit and i know with this new law they're suppose to have a
title that suggests that it's porn, but they sure as hell dont.

one thing i've noticed is that the cocksmokers check if you actually
opened the mail by inserting like a tiny invisible image that
forwards to a script that tracks which e-mails opened and
which didnt. the fucked up thing is that even if you try to delete
it, outlook opens the preview and they know you've opened
it so they spam you some more.

damn these fucking spammers!

:)

PimpMeNot 01-05-2004 12:10 AM

first it was the paris hilton tape
then the jessica simpson tape
now it's the damn jlo/ben tape
what will be next?

Pornwolf 01-05-2004 12:12 AM

Porn is waaaaaay down. But the small money bullshit is waaay up. I guess the filters are getting wise to the porn tricks and links since all the small time mailers start with porn.

The 120 grace period was removed from the final draft that bush signed. :winkwink:

VeriSexy 01-06-2004 02:37 AM

Thank god my ISP started labeling most of the spam so it's easy to filter out.

404 01-06-2004 02:56 AM

the russian-language spam dropped off to 0 the other day at my mailboxes.

Trax 01-06-2004 04:22 AM

i didnt notice anything
but then again i get only like 10 spams to each of my accounts every day as my filters are VERY tight

The Forager 01-07-2004 05:19 AM

Yep. I've also noticed a small decrease.

- AFN - 01-07-2004 06:48 PM

Hopefully, it will be permanent. I doubt it.:(

gornyhuy 01-07-2004 06:53 PM
