Spambots, go away!

Views: 166
Comments: 6

Recently I've registered on flixster.com to test some of their features and now I'm keep getting spam messages through their pm system. And those messages look just the same as some UGers recieved recently.

But I was amazed how people react to these messages!

wow! a member for only 17 days, and already 281 comments, half of them with email addresses. no wonder scammers do the 'Nigerian Prince' thing. it's obviously bullshit. But from the looks of things at flixster, there is no shortage of gullible people out there...

Does this mean UG is actually MORE intelligent than the average internet forum?

I keep getting aproximately 10 e-mails a day saying "31|\||_ARG3 |_|R P3|\||S"(Enlarge ur penis) I don't know why I keep getting these e-mails. My penis is already large enough... How would they know if my penis is small(which it isn't)?

I also keep getting these "Click here to recieve your free 6 gb Ipod touch" or, "Tyrone, you have 8 Imacs waiting to be picked up" or "Please clikc here to receive your free Sony Vaio"
I do want a Sony Vaio though... but I'm not That stupid.
none of this is linked to UG.
