Thanks for your vigilance against the SPAM attack this morning.

Just a regular guy
Apparently SPAMMERS are getting smart, using real email addresses and USA-borne IP addresses. Thank you for the slew of emails and reported posts which are sadly necessary to keep AF running smoothly. AF has always had a very strong self-policing presence which I love. It is great that you guys care enough about this place to claim a little bit of it as your own and stand guard against the evil spammers.
 
if folks don't know it, you can report these by clicking on the the red box with "r" inside located in the upper right hand corner of the post.:bigups
 
I just don't get the reason for this, I mean, as soon as it's posted, somebody reports it and boom - banned and post deleted. So what does the spammer get out of all of this? Help - I'm not that www dot savey on this stuff...

Mostly third-world countries who pay these guys dimes for every link their spam produces.

I worked in the anti spam sector of the net for a while. It's more than just dimes they are paying for the people that capture personal information.

That's what this spamming links are all about.

It's an under world that is WAY evil.
