The spam these days

Last touched on Tuesday, May 15, 2007

It seams like I’m getting flooded by it everywhere these days, in my gMail account I’m currently on over 1k spam messages in my archives again and it looks like it’s on the rise again. Will I reach the 5k plus again which I had at times in the past? I don’t know, let’s wait [...]

It seams like I’m getting flooded by it everywhere these days, in my gMail account I’m currently on over 1k spam messages in my archives again and it looks like it’s on the rise again. Will I reach the 5k plus again which I had at times in the past? I don’t know, let’s wait and see.

Also the spam incoming on Slevi is becoming funnier and funnier with it being more and more, they actually address me as dear webmaster now already though or try to cover up the links as much as possible by just linking on single letters.

How they actually keep on trying and trying, I just don’t get it, as nothing is getting through in the end anyways. But I suppose those little automated systems going around doing the spamming aren’t programmed to get enough of it.

  1. I don’t get it either man. You’d think sooner or later they’d get tired of the whole thing, but I guess once it’s programmed to do it’s thing it just keeps running, and running, and running!

  2. Heck I already have over 5K of spam in one of my gmail folders. The other account I dont use to sign up for anything but I have about 1K of spam in that and maybe 10 people know that address. It’s freaky I tell you. As for the website, I’ve had Bad Behavior since I started it and it stops all of the automated spammers so the only spam I receive those morons have to physically put in themselves and most of the time it is through my contact page. Idiots.

    Arrgh, I’m still getting those crazy proxy errors….

  3. Thanks for the responses :), apparently it can still worse like Blueyes pointed out. Luckily enough still a long way to go that’d be then till I’m in such a state of over-spammage.

Have your say

Like many others I'm a slave to modern society dominated by mass media, I can be hooked on the latest series for months without missing a single episode or simply having to see a certain movie.

And if you thought music wouldn't be included there, you're dead wrong! Practically non stop I listen to music from various artists, I just can't stand the silence anymore.
