windrider07 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 LOL yea, gotta love those kinds of spam messages. I ignore them. Most of the time, I read them just to be amused and then I delete them. I wonder why on earth do people spend time creating spam messages like these. Do they really think they will get people? Eh *shrugs* the only people they will get are those who are on the dark and desperate side of the cyberworld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Deakins Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Why fish for emails? Email spammers don't need real email addresses. They only need real domain names. Then they send emails to thousands of names at the domain. I would think that anyone with a website has come across it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJayy Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 I didn't think I'd get on the Second Life profile. I have seen different versions elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrie Juran Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 That's one of the concerns with Web Based profiles, etc, that they could get targeted by spammers. As the spammers develop the tools to harvest information from the Web Based profiles, it is going to get worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
