I've been checking out all these new member spammers (many Russian & European)
and what have you. My take??? These are people (not bots) who make a buck when you click on their advertised site. Fortunately most seem to register (with personal info like a birthday). They spam us all and that's it. But please play it safe. Avoid these lowlifes like the plague. I will get them all cleaned up in due time. Sol |

Annoying aren't they? I haven't had any recently but I was getting PMs from them at one stage. I'd like to gut them.

Me too, but just be cool and give them ZERO attention and they will soon be gone as Sol said. You don't want to piss off a spammer and get a virus sent to you or something like that, you know? Just ignore them and never open a PM from an unknown member, and especially a very new unknown.

SHIT!!
Does this mean I WON'T get the $5,000,000 from the former Nigerian General for helping him get his money into the US by using my bank account???? ...and the guy seemed to be so sincere too. Fuck! I was looking forward to taking a few years off work. This post has been edited by sylant: Oct 26 2009, 05:35 PM -------------------- There's no place like 127.0.0.1

Too late for you boys cause I already got the money! I actually own part of Nigeria now, you may all call me "Your Highness" from now on. And not just one but three local chicks that love me for who I am I just hooked up with, all at the same time if you want the truth. They say their love for me is not just about the money or my new found fame, at least that is what they say anyway.....

Be true to your forum avitar, and take your millions and the three local chicks and head off to the Crab Nebula. You all can have great fun way the hell out there. Just be sure to keep in touch. Myself, I'm thinking of working my way up to becoming a spammer. Why do the hard work for someone else, when I can make myself rich! I'm gonna find my own Nigerian general connections and local chicks to sell to people. I already have email servers and bandwidth. If Solaris and the email filters across the Net catch on to me, I'll just ask Treasury for a bailout. -------------------- There's no place like 127.0.0.1
