Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
Not to stir the poo..but..

Did anyone else get this? I just got it out of nowhere. And guess what? The link to unsubscribe is dead. How convenient. :rolleyes:

I let the admin know that sending emails though a list with no way for the recipient to unsubscribe is a clear violation of the CAN-SPAM act though. :tu

Now to head over the FTC website to report it! :):salute::tg

I did and had the same problem. The non-working unsubscribe link wasn't the only violation of can-SPAM compliance either.

It worked for me just now.

You can forward it to <SPAM@UCE.GOV>.

Surprised to have gotten one of these out of the blue as well. Haven't been over there in a few years, and haven't gotten anything from them in about the same amount of time. I'll just delete it, easy enough.

I am banned over there, still get the email. Time to start bugging Jon Craputo again.

The unsubcribe worked for me, thankfully. It's sad to see the Jungle has been turned into the Bungle.

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I had 3 of them in my email, but the unsubscribe link did work. :confused:

taltos 03-18-2011 05:59 AM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I did the forward routine plus marked as spam in my email reader. Will be interesting to see if these actions get me banned. Don't much care either way.:pn

Got another after unsubscribing also but then I realized my fault. I unsubscribed the email that it got bounced to. Just unsubscribed the original address, hope I don't start getting them on both address's....

I got one as well and the unsubscribe worked for me but something tells me it wont actually work.

Kreth 03-18-2011 10:47 AM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
It won't stick, because I won't get the confirmation e-mail, but Craputo just took care of forwarding for me...

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I unsubscribed, complained to Craputo, few hours later I got a second poof daily indigestion mail. Made a filter now, next one is automatically forwarded to Craputo with some cursewords

hotreds 03-18-2011 11:01 AM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
Noticed that I, too, got multiple copies of the email today and yesterday. I may have to use one of my filters so I don't hafta keep deleting these annoyances!

Whee 03-18-2011 11:02 AM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I also started receiving yesterday. And now, my login is in invalid.

Must have been cleaning house...:rolleyes:

Correction: My login does not work on the main page, but did log me into the forums when I used the old CS link.

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
This doesn't help anyone today, but a long time ago I changed my email account at that site to one that I never check. Haven't logged in since, so hopefully they will disable my account.

I'm banned, can't change my mailaddy

shilala 03-18-2011 11:30 AM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I think the multiple are from when they merged CS and CL together into poof. It duplicated everyone's account and they got a username-cs (or cl) tag. Anyone remember that stuff?
I only got one email each of the last two days, the unsuscribe worked for each.

Don Fernando 03-18-2011 01:06 PM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
That's not the case with me Scott, I never had a CL account

Bunker 03-18-2011 01:15 PM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I got one, unsubscribe worked for me

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I just went and signed in and it wouldn't let me use the one you used Kreth, it said it was already in use.:r I changed it to some made up address.

sikk50 03-18-2011 02:38 PM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
And just got a third. WTF

After reading this thread and already having tried to unsubscribe from the Digest a couple times, I went on Puff and started a thread griping about the whole thing. And I'm not even a grump by nature...well not usually. ;)

being banned doesn't help, you still get the spam

hotreds 04-01-2011 03:42 PM

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
Yup- it's there daily in my inbox. Just delete it- going over there to try to unsubscribe isn't worth giving them "another visitor!!!"

The technique that I used, before I was banned, was to change my email address to something invalid, like "spam@fbi.gov". I don't get the mailings ...

I don't. ;)

But like Mark said, I can't receive e-mail to a bogus e-mail like JC changed mine to and lied about. :r

I also changed my age to 15, just in case someone investigates ...

Wow. I haven't logged in over there in forever, but I just started getting this crap everyday too. I guess that's another to add to the spam list.

loki 04-02-2011 08:39 PM

I found your thread and asked to be removed as well. Hope it works.

Re: Daily Digest email from Poofy-doof?
 
I just started getting the crap on Thursday, can't unsubscribe, but it is fortunately heading straight to my 'Spam folder' and gets reported as a fishing scam. :td
