    Please post the entire header here - and if possible the aff code. It's more than likely it's an affiliate of theirs. The aff manager needs to be notified right away.

    Yup. Its affiliate spam. 888-casino.com (with the hyphen) is anonymous in Whois and 888 wouldn't send out a direct download email either. Could you forward me the email to webmaster[at]oggs.com (@ not [at]) ? I'll see if i can track the affiliate code.

    Dont worry - there's a setting on the forum that grabs the TITLE from the actual website unless you check it "off" when you post ("Automatically retrieve titles from external links ") Unfortunately there is no option todefault it "off" in the current version of vBulletin message boards.

    I can't find it at present (Bryan or one of the other portalmasters here will probably have it) but 888.com corporate issued a complaints email address earlier this year for any spam to be reported so they could take action against those responsible.

    I've been contacted by 888.com's affiliate manager.

    Noluckever67, I've PMd you with his contact details. And if anyone receives spam from 888.com, please use this address reportspam@888.com.
