Does the sender of a GMail invite get to know the recipient's chosen address?
Thank you for supporting * we are currently moving your receiving this email because you subscribed to *. We reserve the right not to remove you from this list since you signed up for it. We are secretly thrilled that are attempt at helping the search engines remove sites in our *. However since we feel this is at a comercial cost to those website we have in fact crippled some mamma and papa sites along the way they where attacted by blog spammers successfully getting our site removed from the engines In a unbiased attempt to eliminate the problem we are resetting our blacklist since this is the only fair way of deciding who we have harmed unintentially. If this doesn't occur in the next week look forward to getting our next wave of emails. Best Regards, Please visit * and tell us what you think please don't try and ask to unsubscribe to this newsletter since at my website that is not a option either.
I can't remember who I got my GMail invite from so I can't say they sent this, but it it is odd that the first UCE in a 4 month old account that so far has only been used to forward stuff for an off-site backup just happens to be directed to webmasters. Would be a nice scam to give someone time to get used to using an e-mail account then hit them with the marketing.
OMG, LOL... now I really wish I remember who I got my GMail invite from... I visited the site in the spam and it said:
NOTE: If you are visiting because you've received an email containing a mock up of my front page or any of the content from or references to this site, I apologize. Some ridiculously immature person (a pissed off spammer most likely) is spamming people with details about this site as if it comes from me. Trash it, move on and have a nice day.
Hmmm... Maybe my spam wasn't sent by the GFYer who sent me an invite http://www.hyperborea.org/journal/ar...st-joe-jobbed/
Then again, being as there was only one reference I can find at Google to it, it could easily be GFY level
