Don Coatney Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Is anyone on this forum getting hit with a lot of spam e-mail recently? I do my best to protect my e-mail and I never give it out on any trashy internet pages. But for some reason I have been bombarded in the last 2 days with a lot of spam e-mail. I am curious if anyone else here has the same problem? I believe my e-mail address was somehow harvested from somewhere but I dont have a clue where and why. On another note how does one stop this junk. My spam filter has always done a good job until now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) my e-mail I use here is an yahoo account generated specifically on online accounts like this..I get so many spam hits from it it is unbelievable but they do a good job filtering it to a spam account...I clear it daily and it only takes a fw second to verify they are all garbage solicits.. when was the last time you checked your computer for spyware running in the background..

TodFitch Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 I have not noticed any difference in the level of spam getting through my email server and email client's spam filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15-D24 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Doubt if this is the source as membership email addresses are never published or public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Coatney Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Whar ever it was it must have run its course. For the past two days I have not had any more spam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
