And where do they come from - here. by Animats · 2004-07-11 08:45 · Score: 1 · on Where Do Dummy Email Addresses Go?

I use various names ending in "-replies" at "downside.com" for everything. The address I use on Slashdot, "slashdot-replies", is harvested frequently. Just got one from OptInRealBig, clearly establishing that they use harvested E-mail addresses. "Opt-in", right.

Oh, maybe signing up for that wasn't the best idea. Now there's a link on slashdot to a page with my shiny new gmail address

You're right, it wasn't. I just signed all three of you up at OptInRealBig. Muh, ha, ha, ha!

Look, go to OptinRealBig and try to opt in. You can't. Think about what that says here. This isn't people forgetting. Look at other comments under this article. There are people who can specifically list where an e-mail address was published and only used for that single purpose.

Read the AUP on the web site, it make it clear that the company does not SPAM. ALL of the 350,000 email address the company send to want the marketing. Just look at part 4 of the AUP

Commercial promotions, advertising, solicitations, or informational announcements that contain false or misleading information in any form. E-mails containing forged or falsified information in the header (including sender name and routing information), or any other forged or falsified information

I am having a problem finding the OPT-OUT email address. Oh wait it is a SPAM stie.

I have the international phone number for them right here, I'm in the UK and I just wasted 5 seconds of thier time going "um" and apologising. Perhaps someone with a stronger constitution can take out +1 303 464 8164

Official source for this number, from the optinbig website.
