i just got an email that says "Max has Tagged you! :)" |
|
it's from taggedmail.com. max is a friend of mine but not someone i hear from all that much.
was max the victim of a phishing scam that spammed everyone in his address book? is it safe to click on the taggedmail link or is it some phishing or spam shit?

2. Something I found on another forum |
|
Poster #1 - This is one of those "social networking" things, but as soon as they obtain an email address, they start spamming it.
Poster # 2 - Yes, their terms of service are quite clear about this:
E) Notice Regarding Commercial Email MEMBERS CONSENT TO RECEIVE COMMERCIAL E-MAIL MESSAGES FROM TAGGED, AND ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THEIR EMAIL ADDRESSES AND OTHER PERSONAL INFORMATION MAY BE USED BY TAGGED FOR THE PURPOSE OF INITIATING COMMERCIAL E-MAIL MESSAGES.

4. I think virus writers are worse than spammers |
|
They are far more destructive.
But glad you could avoid that pitfall. :thumbsup:
