Angry EntireWeb & WebProNews Constant Spam!

Over the past 72 hours, I have been recieving continuous spam from WebproNews, and EntireWeb, even after unsubscribing.

Am I the only one getting flooded by the same e-mails over and over again?

Are the e-mail you recieve from EntireWeb & WebProNews any good? What exactly do the e-mail talk about?

The e-mails are VERY good, and please don't take this as being a stuck up statement, but I know almost half of the information that they send out, my dad is in the SEO business with lead corps that are affiliated with Google, and also a project manager for Convergys in their advertising group.

I like the info, but I have a resource already (my dad) so I was just annoyed that they were flooding me with the same e-mail within 5 minutes. It was getting pretty bad and to the point where it was spam and wouldn't be a good thing to point out to them of what they were doing.

Hi there,

Funny you mention WebProNews I have been hassled by them as well, I never actually noticed I had signed up fro anything like that because I am actually quite web-wise and computer literate. Although, sometimes these spamming sites are very clever and can catch you with their affiliate sites.

If I was you I would open an e-mail account like I have, and if there is a site I want information from but need to sign up to get it, if I don't totally trust the site - I simply sign it up in this e-mail address.

Check the terms and conditions of the e-mail provider first a some don't take lightly to spam dumping.

As for EntireWeb however, I haven't heard of them, but what is really getting on my nerves at the moment is...MySpace and those other friend list sites.

I hope that only in heaven there is no spam .


Regards,
Kieran Taylor.
