Hello,
Well, it’s official in my book…
I have an email address ONLY used for Platinum Play casino. I was just spammed at this address by the domain: Piller2338
Pillar2338.com are where all links are MASKED from and serves as both a re-direct and an affiliate code masking. here are the ID’s I pulled from a TCP scan during the redirect:
Silver Dollar Casino
http://www.silverdollar.com/?c=24944&s=LiForJudyAug20English Harbour Casino
http://www.englishharbour.com/?c=24944&s=LiForJudyAug20Carribean Gold Casino
http://www.caribbeangold.com/?c=24944&s=LiForJudyAug20Well, you can see the pattern here… I had to decipher the TCP packets to see what the user ID is, but it’s plain to see.
I would like to know why Platinum Play is selling off my email address???????
I would also like to know why Casino Coins is allowing this person to spam the shit out of me.
Any ideas Nick?
Just curious, are these addresses from hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc?
Nope – my own server.
The first spam mail came through gmail, but this one is my own and was only given to Platinum Play casino. The mail address existed for that sole purpose.
Hi Kwblue,
Casino Coins has a NO SPAM policy and require all emails to be double opt-in and verified. Many affiliates send to mailing lists and are required to be CAN-SPAM compliant. Casino Coins in no way condones unsolicited bulk email and we do take SPAM very seriously.
I have already begun investigating the first post you made yesterday regarding SPAM to your gmail account. I have contacted the individual and they have assured me that they only send emails to addresses that opt-in. It would help me if you could please send the original email in tact, as an attachment, so I can further investigate.
As for the situation today, Casino Coins has nothing to do with the lists that affiliates acquire, if your email has been sold that is something you must take up with whatever program you believe to be at fault. I will, however, investigate the SPAM and advise the offending individual that if they do not cease sending to emails that have not opted-in, then their account will be blocked.
Cheers,
NickThat second email spam is actually WORSE than the first Nick…
It is a redirected site used specifically to spam people and redirect without showing the affiliate id! THAT affiliate needs to be stopped. I don’t care where they got my address from – it is SPAM IF I DON’T REQUEST IT.
Ugh! Yes, I’m frustrated with all this.. I’ll send you the first one intact, but if I start getting emails to that address I’m going to lynch somebody.
