Ok, well that answers that question. One of the casino people was under the impression that you were now FL spam free.
Later: one question Bern: is there any specific reason that you are targeting FL here? If you've like me you're probably getting spammed by all sorts of folks.
I
originally targeted FL here because until very recently the offensive spam originating at said
spamhaus was exclusively FL new sign up deals.
However, I am sorry to say, after over two months, hundreds of spam emails forwarded to FL, reports to SpamCop.net plus this thread, spam originating from the very same scuz-buckets now include, as I thought I had made perfectly clear in yesterday's post, in
addition to FL promos, new sign up offers from Slots Plus, Grand Mondial and Casino Share (see third paragraph and end of my last post).
The message being sent to me as I see it: The total lack of due diligence on the part of FL in regards to their own anti-spam policies has emboldened this spammer to include more, otherwise, respectable casinos in his spam campaign, going so far as to include
two casinos currently residing in the accredited casino list right here at good ol' CM!
Berny seems to be saying it is the SAME affiliate, just a different name but the SAME Email/Domain. The Email and Domain show it to be the SAME affiliate, yet surely his FL affiliate account should ALREADY have been closed after the string of complaints early in the month. -VWM
I'm sorry if I hadn't made that clear. There is no excuse for this to still be occurring. This is a highly sophisticated spammer who's identity must have certainly been crystal clear to FL the very first time I complained (Aug 6) given the volume of original casino web artwork they are cramming into my inbox. (ouch!)
I understand your frustration, but please refrain from flaming the casino and its reps. We'll get nowhere this way. - CM
I totally respect this and, to tell you the truth, I couldn't help but wince every time I highlighted that copy for "super-sizing." Wont happen again. After all, you're the boss and I am a guest.
That said, I can't help but wonder what FL is thinking after all that's been said and done while they sit idle as this problem not only continues, unabated, but
ecsalates. I take their disrespect personally, on my behalf
and as a CM member.
Additionally, I interpret the non-actions of FL and the continued affronts by their affiliate as no less than a direct slap in all of our faces - change that to SPITTING in our faces - because that's how it feels. And should Grand Mondial and Slots Plus stand mute on this, given their status here, well, I can't tell you how to feel, Bryan, and you already know my position on it.
I'll do as you say and leave it up to you. It was yesterday that I found the addition of the 3 casinos mentioned in the same spam containing the FL promos and I am just adding the spam -reporting email address to my contacts and will then forward the emails to them demanding that they rein in this affiliate.
Today there is no new spam from Sam F, so far, though I haven't checked to see if it is there under a new alias.
For once Bern, I actually agree with what you have highlighted You have given them ample opportunities to stop this spamming. - chuchu59
lol He said, "For once..." Oh well. I'll take what I can get. Thanks chuchu.
I do admit (and I
thought it was obvious) that I don't post to be popular. I DO post problems I have with casinos that I sincerely believe must be impacting other CM members as well as myself. I am often dumbfounded to find no posts about situations I rush here to reply to, only to later find dozens of replies to the thread I started because no one else did. My style is intended to make the biggest noise possible for effectiveness in ending a problem asap. I did it for a living and I am very good at it. This is not an apology and you wont find any from me. Anywhere. My posts should offend no CM member as they are directed at the casino's, who we patronize with our hard earned cash and who need no defense from me by anyone here. If anyone reading my posts are embarrassed FOR me because of my directness, lack of tact, out-spoken manner, etc., don't be. These posts are for MY benefit, first and foremost and nobody's name is ever given credit for my words but mine. And, yes, I'm not for everybody. I thought my handle and avatar were fair warning enough for those of you with weak stomachs.
