Spammers in private mail?
By root85, 13 years ago, In English
Just got this message in my private CF inbox. Should we consider spam detection already? Maybe just a simple option in profile "Don't receive messages from non-rated members"?

    According to that fact, could we suppose those spammers are from some country where penalty for spamming is not as severe as for sexual discrimination?

Why don't you write her back? Don't ruin the poor spammer girl's entire life, even spammers deserve some chance for love! :)

      Honestly, abstract concept "spammer" in my imagination doesn't have any gender at all, this is something inhuman :)

      But, actually, we never know...

    I fear you could not block newly registered people, and spammers could easily create new account. :-(
