Jimbo 0 #1 July 26, 2002 OK - Who jumps at the Atlanta Skydiving Center? This just showed up in my email: Quote Atlanta Skydiving Center is hosting a STRONG tandem certification course in Cedartown Georgia. FREE Lodging is available. The course begins July 30th 2002 at ASC. Call the drop zone for details at 770-684-3483. http://www.SkydiveCenter.com I have never been to the Atlanta Skydiving Center, I've never jumped in the state of Georgia. I have never been to their website, I've never asked them to send me anything, ever. At least Yahoo! automatically filtered this into the 'Bulk' folder. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #2 July 26, 2002 Yahoo didn't filter mine, neither did hotmail, neither did my work email. They got all 3. There's very few things in this world I hate more then spam. ASC should know better. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyMan 7 #7 July 26, 2002 QuoteI got it via hotmail. CLAY! I don't give my hotmail account out to anyone, cause I never use it. The only way they would've got it is if they had some 'bot' scaning webpages for email addresses, which is a pretty common practice AMONG PORN SITES... The 'bot probably picked up your hotmail account off your profile, just as it did for me. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomAiello 26 #10 July 26, 2002 I've gotten two from them in the last 3 hours. Maybe a once in a while boogie announcement (especially from a DZ somewhere near me) is ok.

fasterfaller 0 #11 July 26, 2002 If everyone that got it would forward it back to them about 50 times they might stop . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ducky 0 #12 July 26, 2002 Not gonna defend ASC, but I will be jumping the CASA there this weekend. kwakSometimes your the bug, sometimes your the windshield. Sometimes your the hammer sometimes your the nail. Question is Hun, Do you wanna get hammered or do you wanna get nailed????? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #13 July 26, 2002 The MX record for skydivecenter.com points to inbound.registeredsite.com. A quick search of news.admin.net-abuse.sightings tells us that this is nothing more than a spam company. Why am I not surprised? Fuckers. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends.

mouth 0 #14 July 26, 2002 They didn't send it to me and I've even jumped there once. Don't think I'll loose any sleep over it so you all enjoy. Lisa -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remster 30 #16 July 26, 2002 havent received it.... but cheer up guys, at least you're getting skydiving related SPAM... All the SPAM I get is girls asking me if I wanna cum (which is fair enough) and stupid weight loss programs (THAT is uncalled for)...Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #17 July 26, 2002 QuoteAll the SPAM I get is girls asking me if I wanna cum (which is fair enough) and stupid weight loss programs (THAT is uncalled for)... Oh you're missing out. I get offers to lower my mortgage, Nigerians who want me to help them launder millions of dollars, chances to buy everything from cell phones and satellite tv systems to email address listings and, my personal favorite, requests for assistance in locating time travel devices (two of those so far!). I could forward them to you if you'd like... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #18 July 27, 2002 I have jumped, even competed at ASC and have not recieved any of this spam. I regularly get flyers from dropzones I have never been to, so I don't see their promo as any different. I would gladly trade all my porn and refinancing spam for more skydiving-related stuff.

lummy 4 #19 July 27, 2002 I got it too, well that and the Casa boogie. I assumed I had gotten it because I thought I had gone to the site at one point and signed up for the contest for a free jump...I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

sitflyr 0 #20 July 27, 2002 I regularly get offers for produts that will increase my penis size. I consider this an insult since, if I had a penis, I'm confident that it would be huge. Julie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drenaline 0 #21 July 27, 2002 Quoteat least you're getting skydiving related SPAM... I am the smartest man in the whole world, (i think) am always getting all kinds of diplomas from different universities. And the best good looking man in the whole planet, cause I get a lot of emails from girls asking me if I wanna cum or see her naked pictures. Did I mention that am also the luckiest man alive? I always get free cell phones, free lotto tickets and free radios. And lucky me I don't get those skydiving related SPAM. Wanna trade your skydiving SPAM with my everything else SPAM?

Dutchboy 0 #22 July 28, 2002 They are the kind of spammers that won't stop if you ask them. I know, because I've asked them before. You'd think they wouldn't want to spam me in particular. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lummy 4 #23 July 28, 2002 Asking a spammer to stop spamming you is usally the worst thing to do. WEll, that and clicking on the little "remove me from your mailing list" button... BAB mistake, unless you really wanted to tell the spammer that you are in fact a live person who looks at their BS.I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

jlmiracle 7 #24 July 29, 2002 I also got spammed and a virus from them. (yes my virus software is a little outdated at home). I called them and asked them to remove me from their list and they denied they ever send out e-mails like that. Then I had my husband call, he talked to someone else and was told they don't send e-mails. Hum... JudyBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
