Yes. Phishers they call them.

Like Gabe is going to read through 500+ emails and validate each and everyone of them.

What is the return to email? Like, "[email protected]"? instead of [email protected] or something...

[Noobulon]

Yeah, you would think they'd bother to make the spelling look legit. Pfft.

lol...there are some pretty lousy people out there. I mean lousy at what they do. I mean seriously..if there gonna do this at least have the return [email protected] It isn't that hard, it's a simple use of a php mail command.

 

[DevgruSeal]

They're just stupid dumbasses...thats all...

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Cheers for the content of the email, im sure you helped out some people for the future. Although its not even slightly believable, and the email address is laughable.

Do you have any idea how they could have obtained your steam email? It's ok as long as they have no password obviously, but how do they get the emails?

I honestly have no idea how they got my email, and how they know I have a STEAM account.

Sorry.

We've seen lots of people link to this page with the description "spam subscription service". This is completely not true. We do not do any sort of subscription, spam or otherwise. We have no affiliation with any of these sites listed, or any other subscription or spam services. We merely collect a list of places where email addresses can be signed up for spam. You must visit these sites and subscribe to them yourself. We do not do that for you.

 

[Dekstar]

Why don't I just save them the bother.
My account name is: Deskstar
My email address is: [email protected]
My password is: Password

Have at it!!!

Sorry.

Umm... ya, that's what I was doing. o_0
whatever
/me signs steam_reactivation up for more spam

 

[BlackDahlia]

Generally, if an email asks for password information and has spelling errors, I point and laugh at it....then delete it.

So when a mail has no spelling errors, you send your info?

/me starts typing a new mail with spellingschecker asking for BlackDahlia's mail

But if they reply, won't it go to [email protected]? They're trying to collect replies and have all those username/passwords.

BTW, anyone who actually replies to these things deserves an F in teh Internets and should be suspended from it for their own good.

Why are you sending him an email asking for his email address? Just ask for his steam password and user. :farmer:

 

[DevgruSeal]

Someone should make a new steam account with NOTHING on it, and give them the fake steam account...Would be quite funny, IMO...They'd get the password, sign on, and be like, "WTF? Theres nothing on here!"

Or you could spam them to hell

'Him'.....right. *cough* >.>

Nah, I delete any mail that asks for account/password info, even if it looks official. I get a metric ton of that crap in the mail every week.
