    Spam off Retro

    Has anyone got a spam message of clubpromos.co.uk advertising a retro event in bradford this morning?

    I've unsubscribed before, it's really getting on my nerves now. I'm gonna contact the people concerned (retro and clubpromos) later and I just wanted a bit more ammunition.

    I think they have just gone through the members list to nick people's addresses.

    Re: Spam off Retro

    dont unsubscribe to spammers - they dont know that your address is real until you do, so if you respond they know it exists so keep sending you stuff. its all a con:)

    Lucy's right, especially with the mass-spam emails for porn/bigger dicks/drugs etc.

    When you hit unsubscribe it confirms your email address to the sender so they know it's a real and active account and usually sell your email address on

    depends on the spammer.


    Take retro, they are legitimate company who have harvested emails from a site without anyones consent... A phone call/email should stop them.

    However big internet spammers from vergiles vagra site can only be ignored.
