Let the flames roll in...
Err... yeah, well I suppose you can talk about other stuff as well, maybe?

Talking to Spambots?

Post by Itusa »

[retitled, was a reply to a spam bot in the hope to elicit some activity...]

Have you... considered playing Vega Strike? Much more fun.

I have access to the e-mail addresses they register with 80% are flagged by one of the anti-spam orgs while most of the rest have made up addresses that do not exist also do IP checks on the rest which the anti-spam plug-ins just fail at such as when the IP address says China and the product advertised is US based like I said it needs a human in the vetting process as the usual vetting algorithms can be fooled as most of the spam is in fact an invite to a bot net :roll:
