Spammers.

They never seem to learn. :-D
Saw and called in 3 today so far. :cry(them) (me)

 

The only good (?) Spam is between 2 slices of bread.

 

Yeah, I actually answered one the other day here in the Lounge - thought it was a legitimate grammar question, and I'm a stickler for grammar, sooo...

Sometimes I think my fingers have brains of their own - they just start typing away, with not a care in the world...

Yada, yada, yada...:-o

 

I report as many as i can spot in the morning (European time) because we are up before our American colleagues so that when they come online they have the reports.

Later in the day not so many get through.

 

when I think of spammers, I think of this guy.

looks like "Army of Darkness".

 

Nah, the best spam is shallow fried [in lard] covered with cheese, then put between two pieces of bread and into the toastie maker

 

You got good taste man. http://bestsmileys.com/cooking/6.gif

 

You know this...man!

 

Poor guy literally went through a bunch of :crap
Especially all of those litte MiniMes.
Couldn't stop laughing while watching it.

 

1 just posted in a F@H stickey.

 

Don't sweat it man, just report them in the not so obvious threads, meaning the red triangle, they'll easily catch the rest of the idiots just by the thread title, like this afternoon when the credit card # sellers posted en masse, seems like there's a feud going on between them or a new ploy. :confused

Just don't do like one mod did last night and vent, posted something like 'die you bastard' but most likely to a 'bot!:-D Then they cleaned up after themselves but it's a complete waste of time and energy but I know the frustration it can bring on as I ban ~20 a day, not here of course.

 

Augie, Augie, Augie.
Reported BEFORE coming here.

 

Then they get a duplicate, at a minimum, since I saw and reported that one too! LOL

Most of the spam I see is for various highly suspect-looking websites that claim to sell cheap shoes and brand-name purses. That creeps me out... I didn't know spam used targeted advertising! :eek

 

I was grateful I learned how to report that today from Dr.Moriarity. So while I haven't any tech knowledge to share, I can do a bit more than take up space!

Power to the People, Right On!:cool

 

Bwahahahahaha!:-D Well, if you take it personally Mimsy, you probably notice them more. It doesn't affect me in the least, as far as targeting goes. Spam is spam 'And Will Be Exterminated!':-D

 

Hell, yeah - not only do they watch blogs, forums and any social NWing site to spam according to trends, but there are other disturbing examples.

For instance: do a google for John Deere tractors for a couple of days, and then start looking through your spam folder(s) - guaranteed there will be John Deere ads popping up before you know it.

 

Zack fixd his links!

That is scary! What I've learned in the last day is to appreciate the work of the moderators & administrators. They're keeping things clean and spending time taking out the garbage. I thank you for your service now!:wave

 

Case in point: this morning I checked my mail, and a Facebook message greeted me with the following thumbnail. WTH?!
.

 

Now we know your surfing interests- erotic videos :-D

Cheers..

 

HAHA!!!

Yeah, there ain't nuthing sexier than a JD 310J backhoeing. :drool :-D :drool

 

Hey Laura, it's called self preservation. These 'bots are tough, we had one this morning and got 64 spams before anyone got to them. That's a record for us from one source or many. Thankfully, I didn't have to deal with it this time.

 

LOL, more work for you guys still.:major Damn it man, they are really out to get someone in these days of Christmas. Watch out folks and never reply to an e-mail offer.

 

Damn your a quick study!I was here for about 3 years before I found that :-D

 

Somebody told him. That's cheating.

 

Heh...we all have our gifts!
