helenafbi with email s.up.er.v.i.s.o.r2015.in.v.i.no@gmail.com

That's the latest spammer who has tried to join the Fit to Talk project. I really don't understand why they try to get access. It's so obvious that they are rubbish spammers, and I seem to get at least one every couple of days. What a stupid format for an email address, and using 'fbi' in the name.

If Helena from the fbi is a member here, then please use your Bitcon Talk member name, you can't join FtT if you don't identify yourself as a member here.

Activity has picked up a bit in that project, so anyone hoping to improve their English to help them to earn merits, should head on over there. The local language project for 5 merits is still active for example.

I really don't understand why they try to get access.

-Seems like accounts are getting valuable like BitcoinTalk accounts here. People are trying to steal the credentials to sell later

Good to know that your hard work is paying off a bit well. Good job.

That's a horrible email address (all the dots are really annoying).

I'm not sure what they'll actually do once they get an account on that site? They can't really do anything very beneficial for themselves by spamming.

I'm getting a lot of those attempted signups.

Probably a bot: user@gmail.com is the same as us.e.r@gmail.com or u.ser@gmail.com.
By adding dots, they can generate thousands of combinations to register the same inbox.

Didn't knew that. Do you mean that if someone send mail to t.e.s.t@gmail.com it will go to test@gmail.com?

Edited:

Sorry, read two times but I got it just now came back from vacation and still recovering
OK, noted, Thanks LoyceV.

No. people basically make variations when they create email accounts for spamming like:

123
132
321
312
213
231

t.e.s.t and test are two unique email addresses. So email will not hit another ones inbox like you are thinking.

PS: I am going to delete an old post to stay on leet

Yes.

You're wrong:

If someone accidentally adds dots to your address when emailing you, you'll still get that email. For example, if your email is johnsmith@gmail.com, you own all dotted versions of your address:

    john.smith@gmail.com
    jo.hn.sm.ith@gmail.com
    j.o.h.n.s.m.i.t.h@gmail.com

Not knowing this is leet unworthy Please make another post

To make it even better: test+LoyceVisRight@gmail.com goes to test@gmail.com too.

So I have understand you correctly the first time and no merit wasted here.

Nailed it, lol

To make it even better: test+LoyceVisRight@gmail.com goes to test@gmail.com too.

Hmm, i didn't knew you can use + in email names, well technically you can't but you get no error.

Okay, the "+" is a bit annoying, as many services reject it. I've used it for my accounts LoyceBot and LoyceMobile on Bitcointalk though.

Note that these special features only work on Gmail.
