FreeBitco.in SPAM

[hugeblack]

Several years ago I had an old gmail account that I used to create an account in FreeBitco.in and I did not use on many platforms.
The last time I used that email to register on websites was last year.
A few days ago I started receiving Spam and offers from noreply@FreeBitco.in, but why is it precisely at this time? Was that site hacked, database leaked or a usage policy modified?
It is very annoying, but what baffles me is the timing. I haven't seen that website for several years.

What spam and offers are you receiving specifically? Are they non-freebitco.in offers or what? Paging @TheQuin; I already messaged him/her to respond here.

They haven't been hacked. I am also receiving those emails. They have some promotions and that's why they send some emails to their users.
If you don't want to receive those emails, go to their website. (Reset your password if you have forgotten your password.) Then go to your profile and change your email address to a random address.
This is the easiest thing you can do.  

Below is their thread in the forum.

They are usually responsive to questions.

Edit:
I just checked their website. There's an option in your profile to not receive promotional emails. So, no need to change your email address. Just uncheck "Promotions" under "email subscriptions".

I have no idea why did you started to get emails from Freebotco.in now. Maybe you was getting it all the time, but haven't saw it, because it was in spam folder and just now it started to appear in main folder.
Previously I was getting emails from Freebitco.in, but at one point it become annoying. They started to repeat same promotional stuff almost every day - it's too much for me.

Yeah, they do already spamming out promotional emails twice a day.

Promotions from them, which confuses me as to why they are sending them now, I haven't visited the site for several years.

Thank you, I will try my solution and deactivate these messages.

No, it is not in the spam folder, but rather in the main folder, and I did not receive any messages until several days ago.

Since I found a way to solve the problem, I will lock the topic. If anyone knows of the rationale behind this, let me know (PM me.)

Since you registered in freebitco.in you will actually recieve any email from them its part also of thier promotion. As you can see they are inviting user's to get back to them using that give away promotion.

To solve this its eighter unsubscribe or always delete the messages.
