Have You Ever Sent Email Spam?
 
Have you ever spammed before? Tell the truth!


I admit i did ..but ...only once back in 2001..and probably under 100k in mails :(

borked 03-15-2007 04:29 PM

Truth?

No.

Maybe better as a public poll?

borked 03-15-2007 04:30 PM

And that's an honest answer to a green nick named 'DEA' with just over 4k posts ;)

I used to mail alot. There's lots of big sponsors who I think were built around(before it was illegal).

I created one of the first winsock mailers back in like 1996-7, it used netscape.com as the mail host. It was open and you could just spam millions of mails through it.

I remember getting my first check from mr-cash, think it was around $9,000 for a week. $90-$180 per signup, good stuff

Sent a couple thousand emails to a coworker once. That's about as close as it gets for me. :upsidedow

blonda80 03-15-2007 04:39 PM

no never!
but I receive tons from sponsors (witch obviously I don`t know who they are)

StarkReality 03-15-2007 04:47 PM

Nope, but a few fake password sites with fake links to my own domains full of shitty xpics and babylon x banners...back in the time when an adult site on it's own domain got 20k hits with 30% CTR the second day with little promo...and fucking hosts that closed you down for getting that much traffic.

Any good bulk email forums?

Worldnet 03-15-2007 06:46 PM

In 1995 I got this new program free on a download that would send 50K an night. Sent out the first batch, and promply got my connection killed by BellSouth the next day. Never did it again.

Damn spammers making 5k a day its sickening really..

martinsc 03-16-2007 06:42 AM

nope... never.

schneemann 03-16-2007 06:59 AM

Never spammed for adult, but did send a lot of "targeted" bulk UCE (mainstream stuff) back when the web was new. I didn't know any better and figured "Hey, these people are already interested in what I'm selling, why not?" We're talking maybe 2,000 e-mails a run.

GooSearch 03-16-2007 07:01 AM

i tried once.. got my peas, and some lists , and spent money on scripts and software.. spent about $1k in set up.. the list i bought was a shit 10 million general email addys i couldn't get thru the filters.. not worth it.. won't do it again..the 1k i spent i could have bought better traffic.....

Screaming 03-16-2007 07:02 AM

fuck yes...

crockett 03-16-2007 07:17 AM

Back before I knew what it really was.. I bought one of the mailing programs and a starter mailing list from someone on this forum. At the time I didn't realize the way they spam by proxies was actually trojans on people PC's.

After I found that out I ended up giving up on the spam idea. Guess my conscious got the best of me. I never ended up sending a single e-mail.. lol so much for that $500 that I spent.

Call me naive but at the time I thought open proxies were, actual proxy web servers and not infected PC's. If it wasn't for that fact I wouldn't have any issues with spammers or spamming, but I just don't agree with infecting people PC's with trojans.

calibra 03-16-2007 07:24 AM

Hell no, never. I hate this.
