Bitcoin Ads Bombardment!

Wasting lots of valuable time, changing black lists and email attributes, because Bitcoin has decided to send me a dozen or so unwanted adverts per day.

I find it strange that, when you block some scam emailers, like Bitcoin, they immediately come back via a different email, or whatever.

They never seem to understand that, if you don't repond, you don't want their carp.

They seem to think that you must have misread their glorious offers.

Re: Bitcoin Ads Bombardment!

I think they are desperate to keep the momentum going.

The whole things bizzare. The adage if something is too good to be true..ect comes to mind.

On top of which anything digital can be hacked/manipulated/spoofed/copied/stolen/deleted and thats not taking the users own incompetence into account.

Im talking about my here arent I..

Agreed, xirrpy, there must be someone, somewhere, who has profited by Bitcoin.

But I have never met one!

I think they cant believe their luck and are immediately transported beyond the realm of mere mortals to Nirvana on waves of well being and loving grace.

Re: Bitcoin Ads Bombardment!

I'm not sure if I get any or not as I only check my spam folder once in a blue moon when some expected email after registering for something or other hasn't turned up.

Re: Bitcoin Ads Bombardment!

I don't get spammed about this but I wish I'd had the foresight to buy a few hundred Bitcoins when they first came out.
