spam to webmasters

[Josea]

Why oh why, do spammers think that webmasters want porn or viarga or what ever it is that they're selling? I guess their spambots consider webmaster@somedomain to be an easy target.


Sorry for the rant. :(

have adware on your computer that you haven't gotten rid of? since we work in the porn industry online, if you have adware installed, it'll tell spammers to send you corresponding porn email

It is possible that I might have some adware I haven't gotten rid of.

But one problem that is not easily solved is that when a spambot finds a domain, putting 'webmaster', in front of the domain name is a very good guess of a live email address.

Fortunately I'm not getting too much spam addressed to 'webmaster'.

one way to beat the e-mail harvester is to just put
webmaster at domain.com on the web page instead of having it a link.

me, admin, administrator, info and the name of the domain (domain@domain) are other easy to guess email addresses.

Oh well.

True the one that i hated was my catchall@domain.com

I just found a site that the e-mail addy was a small .gif lmfao but hey what ever it takes right
