Ok...who is selling webmaster e-mails?
 

Not mentioning any names, but in the past couple of weeks (most recently today) I have received e-mails from new programs. The e-mails make it seem like I'm already signed up for that program, and when I check...I'm not. The one I received today isn't associated with any other program (that I know of)...so my question is...which sponsor is selling my fucking e-mail address?

as if a company would say in public...

Oh no, I don't expect them to. I'm just pissed and wanted to let everyone else know about it.

maybe someone used an email harvester on gfy this is a common way to get email addys have you ever posted your email on this site?

i always use a differnt email for each program so I know where the spam is coming from, works pretty good

Yeah, I probably have. And they do post here, so that's a real good possibility. I got to learn not to post my damn e-mail on message boards. lol

That's a damn good idea. I'll have to start doing that as well. What do you do, just set up a shitload of e-mail addys and have them all forward to one?

I do the same...works a treat:)

If you have a domain, have a main catchall account, and sign up to sponsors with a different email addys, like [email protected], as they will all be redirected to your main e-mail address you will still get them but you can easily pinpoint anybody who is leaking your e-mail address. Plus its also easier to stop incoming spam that way as you can just block one address.

fucking gayeeee

i just made an email for my sponsors like [email protected]...

then i just receive a mail from a new program although the email has something like a "NEW PROJECT" so its a project of one of my sponsor.. so its good. i hate it when i receive an email from new program or old program that im not familiar with...
