| 1106667 | 2010-06-04 23:50:00 | I have had 2 spams this year...both offering marriageable Russian ladies. None at all last year. Nothing in the spam folder on my TC webmail. |

| 1106669 | 2010-06-05 00:59:00 | I'm starting to get 5-7 'pharma' emails weekly on my xnet account (Spam filter. Yeah right!) Whilst on Gmail, it's about the same per year. And it automatically goes into the junk folder! |

| 1106670 | 2010-06-05 01:24:00 | I've noticed a big increase lately - mainly in my non-Gmail accounts - some of them even from Gmail addresses (can you report these to Google, or are they most likely spoofed?)!. Someone somewhere must have gotten hold of a swag of servers.... |

| 1106671 | 2010-06-05 01:56:00 | some of them even from Gmail addresses (can you report these to Google, or are they most likely spoofed?)! . Most them would be fake gmail accounts though the odd scammer offering millions in unclaimed funds sometimes have a gmail senders address same as the drop box email address in the message itself . Not often though . Over the last couple of months I have noticed a big increase in floods of specific spam, this week there seems to be a big flood for fake watches with big discounts, all coming back to one hosting website, recently it was Russian Brides which last about 10 days and then just died . There was before that a big flood of spam for pills, again, all coming back to one website, after a week or so, it drops back to normal levels . |

| 1106673 | 2010-06-06 11:37:00 | Curious - the Google adverts on Press F1 are all for anti-spam this evening. | Twelvevolts (5457) | ||
| 1106674 | 2010-06-07 00:03:00 | I'd count the excessive use of word and association in the same thread title on this forum is spam. | icow (15313) | ||
| 1106675 | 2010-06-07 04:40:00 | So do I - ban the lot of them I say. But in the mean time if the original keeps going then it is an equal opportunity spamming for all. | Twelvevolts (5457) | ||
