"What matters is love, but let me send you my picture" "don't reply to me here (I won't use tribe, but expect you to).." geez, I guess they're too lame to use an online dating service.. or too desperate for your money.... "Please send me US$ 12,000 so that I may come visit you..."

They are good at response!! Maybe Carolyn can come up with a program that will shock spammers should they return for a second visit.

I am happy to report that help@tribe.net responded to my report and terminated the spammer and deleted the post from my album. Thanks, guys!

Someone usually does. If only 1 in 10,000 people respond to a spam, it makes money for the spammers. Heck, most of them don't even pay for electricity...all they do is zomby-ize someone elses computer and use it as a spamming platform. And if they don't actually live in a country with extradition agreements with the United States, there is little that we can do about the spammers short of nuclear war. Let's hope it doesn't come to that...

one has to wonder who responds to this spam? How is it worth their while? YES I got one in my photo album today too and deleted it.

Now the creeps are sending these messages through comments to photos in my album! I'm trying the help@tribe.net solution.

more uptime leads to more spam, unfortunately!

send a link to the profile and the message to help@tribe.net -- we delete them and often their messages as soon as we see them.

I have been getting spam in my "other mail" now off & on for several days. Here is the latest example: <Date Fri, April 17, 2009 - 2:55 AM Subject Reply me back on (vivian_44hope@yahoo.com ) Message Hi happy day to you,i am miss vivian who viewed your profile today and like it very much,which makes me to write to you to let you know that i am intrested in you,therefore i will like you to write me back through my mail address so that i will tell you futher about myself and send you also my picture for you to know me physically. Here is my mail address, But it is of no use replying to me here without sending me a mail to my email address above vivian_44hope@yahoo.com vivian_44hope@yahoo.com Please send me a mail into my email address so that i can tell you more about me and also send to you my photo,It is better that we do not count on age,religion,colour even our distance since they don't matter because what matters most is real love. Waiting to read from you direct in my mail address.(vivian_44hope@yahoo.com) Kiss from vivian. > I have had about four messages like this recently. I never used to get this sort of stuff.
