    Default Getting spammed from here

    Just a hint, after signing up here recently I been getting unsolicited mail. Funny things is, this site is the only one I am using that mail-address on.

    I don't know what perks higher class users have or that mail is being sent automatically from T-I or that people can send me email from my profile but today and yesterday I've been getting 3 mails already to join certain trackers/sites (and crap ones as well, for that matter).



    No clue if staff could explain if/how/why this is happening but more than willing to cooperate on this matter.

    Don't be so quick to blame TI mate....If this site was the problem there would be alot more people complaining...

    You probably have spyware and the likes on your computer...try get a good application to get rid of those nasties...

    Bit shortsighted, ain't it? The last time ever I had a virus or any kind of crap on my PC was back in 2003. Switched over to Windows Server OS and never had any issues whatsoever. Then the biggest coincidence ever, it seems; I register here and within days I get mail of all sudden..

    I am not blaming/accusing the site of sending me this email; merely trying to find out what every class/person on this site can do when one clicks my profile and if they're able to send mail to me; then it's just a way of deduction who visited my profile.

    I actually think I got more spam, since I started torrenting more. But this is not TI, aap1 said it right. More users would complain. I think don_rocks has a good theory, there may be something about it.

    In return, I use gmail, so I've just set up the spam filter to delete right away.

    I can only speak from my personal experience, but I use an e-mail address only for signing up to trackers, one for T-I and a third on as contact detail when renting a seedbox.
    I never got any spam from T-I or any of my trackers, but I did get some weird mails to the e-mail address I use for seedbox companies. That means at least one of them sells their customers e-mail details to third parties, which is kind of concerning if you use that address also for something else. I don't want to mention any names, because it would be unfair for the not guilty ones. I also have no evidence which one it is.

    Nobody can see your email on your profile, I can't even see it.

    Maybe some screenshots of the emails and the sender email would help us diagnose the problem, you can PM them to me or click the 'Contact Staff' link at the bottom of the page if you want. :)

    Perhaps what you are getting is instant notification from the forum on threads that you have posted on.

    Other than that, your email address must have been used for something other than TI, I have even donated money to TI and have never received anything from this forum that was not expected.

    You should be able to do a little tracking on the email to see the original source. But that might require a little know-how. :)

    As tur42keys mentioned, if you don't mind forwarding the emails through the Contact Us form, we can further investigate the issue and take measures to stop the spam for you. Thanks.
