David_218 Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Just curious to see if anyone is receiving SPAM MAIL from a source with the domain: www.hopeforit.com ? Seems like I am receiving around 8 pieces of spam with subject ranging from on-line singles to on-line pharmacies, and a few mailing that offer on-line gambling. They always come with someone's name like [email protected] or a product name. I am sure sick and tired of receiving this trash and have e-mailed www.hopeforit.com Anyone that is receiving SPAM from this source should write them and tell them to stop it or you will turn their domain over to the FCC and/or Attn. General office in your State. LETS GET TOUGH WITH THESE JERKS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedicast Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Re: Anyone receiving SPAM from this source? I haven't recieved spam from them, yet. If i wrote to every address that I get spam from, I would never have time to be on the forums. I probably get 30 emails a day that I just delete. It's gotten to the point where it doesn't even phase me anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherguy Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Re: Anyone receiving SPAM from this source? just make a list of all the addresses who spam you, and every day forward soem of the spam to all of them. Get all your friends to do this and they may eventually get the hint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILSNIPER1 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Re: Anyone receiving SPAM from this source? Just a quick WARNING.. DO NOT SEND THEM AN E-MAIL!! If you go to those site's or send them an e-mail or go there to "UNSUBSCRIBE" all you are doing is giving them your e-mail address. You can send all the e-mails you want.. it's all done w/a computer anyway, so, you will get NOWHERE! It might also be a good idea to NOT post the links to their site(s) on here, all you are doing is sending them more trafic!? Some Tips.. 1) Never open E-Mail(s) from people you dont know! 2) Never go to these sites & "Unsubscribe", all you are doing is confirming to them your e-mail. 3) Keep all Windows, antivirus, spy-ware, adware & anti spam software up to date & running. Be safe, Phil B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] The problem with trying to "unsubscribe" from a "Spammer" is they can sell your e-mail address! I was told to NEVER give out your e-mail address to any individuals or businesses that send you SPAM. <BE CAREFUL!> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_218 Posted May 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Re: Anyone receiving SPAM from this source? I think the very best way is for all who receive unwanted e-mail SPAM is to turn these individuals and outfits over to the Attn. General's office in your State and also to the F.C.C.!! I have the anti spyware installed and up-to-date plus anti virus software. These individuals are getting around these and are getting smarter, too bad they can't do something constructive other than send unwanted SPAM and invading ones' privacy. Maybe they need a lawsuit filed against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan_Til_I_Die Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Re: Anyone receiving SPAM from this source? The only sure way to find out who actually sent you the spam is to look at the Internet Header information on the email. For example, I can send you a message and make it look like it came from anyone I choose. Heck, I can even make it look like you sent it to yourself!. In fact, most of the spam you receive today has a "spoofed" return address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
