Looks like the signed me up for an email address that redirects. Luckily so far, I have not gotten anything else, I blocked at the domain level, so even if they tried to email me, I guess it would be blocked. There is something to be said for AOL in this case, and it is nice I can do that.
To report spam, you might want to try www.spamcop.net - I use it, I've been aggressively trying to reduce spam that I receive. This works really well with some companies, not the one time ones, but some borderline ones that sign you up and create a mailing list. Spam gets reported to all levels, web host and ISP. I know of one person who actually had their web site terminated because of this, so it can work

I'm getting a lot of email too including another pinstuck. I still think it's cheesewhiz doing it, he's silly enough to think of this.
Here is the Organ Donor one:
(bettylou, I'm sorry you were left out, you should have posted. See what you missed.)
Many thanks for your kind offer to donate your vital organs. We would however just like to stipulate that donors must no longer actually have any need for their organs and, preferably, be clinically Brain Dead. Although this is the case for many living donors, we just wish to ensure you are familiar with the terms and conditions of donation.
If you have any other vital organs you wish to dispose of in the event of your untimely demise, please contact us at Organ Donations Direct, preferably before you go toes-up, as contact after this period can only be done via a medium and results in excessive overheads.
Thank you once again for your interest.
Kind regards,
Slarty Bartfast
Live Organ Donation Co-ordinator

Ok..so its a forwarding system and according to AW it has to be set up? Me thinks that if AW is going to make it that easy for one of the folks here to harrass other users, they will lose business. I certainly dont have time for this.
MEOW

I also got 16 spam messages. Ok, NYCYN....you better have a heck of a filter on your email address! in case you wondered how she did it, if you put your [email protected] it goes to your email account. You are sick NYCYN....
posted on February 16, 2002 08:42:17 AM new
I am surprised we haven't gotten more spam in the past. I just blocked all mail from that domain, I hope I don't block all AW mail though
posted on February 16, 2002 09:21:32 AM new
I blocked the domain as well. I dont like the idea that my AW user ID can be used for spam and if it AW doesnt do something to correct the situation they have created, I'll go find another auction tool to use and say POOF to AW.

To meow and irene:
Like a said, I will not go to private e-mail to talk about NYCYN.
I thought it was all laid to rest after AW nuked her last thread but now she will read this and she will be back.
I have nothing against you two and if you look at the threads that still exist from nycyn, you will see who the real trouble maker is here.
My bet is Nycyn is the culprit behind the e-mails trying to get it going again and doing it this way to look innocent.
I have never sent "ghost" e-mails to anyone in my life. I will only talk here, unless u ask me to do otherwise.
It is not me that is the bully or trouble maker here.
Look at these and you be the judge.
Threads that NYCYN have started over the same little problem (when she doesn't get her way she starts a new thread):
Beware those who holler STALKER!
Bad news--buyers. Good news-sellers?
The Victim of the Year Award
ps as everyone knows we all have a unique ISP address. I did not send these e-mails and I can prove it.

Cheesemanike a.k.a. Itaintme:
It's all about reputation capital.
If you are considered a prime candidate that's because of how you chose to post in the past. Just before you were suspended, I read your post where you threatened to never stop harassing Nycyn on AW.
You are right. You might not be the culprit of these e-mails. However, it is hard to give credibility to your post when you have behaved in a very immature manner in the past. Whoever is sending the e-mails is displaying the same immmature character.

An email to me & a request that I post it.
I would also like to say nycyn has an asmatic child & she has spent the better part of the last two days at the hospital.
She has no time for this & I in no way think she is responsible for the spam everyone is receiving.
Are there any computer experts here that can get to the bottom of this. There has to be a way.
*********************************************
Her letter:
I got one too, but just deleted it assuming it was from Cheeseface. I
found it curious that pieces of threads would disappear also. Trust me, I
am no geek never mind a hacker. Let's see if this goes thru, if not, I'll
ask a sympathizer to post this. My guess is that he, or someone, sent
them, assuming correctly that I'd get the blame. Believe me, I don't have
time for cybercards, cybercartoons, funny dancing faces, or cyber-voodoo!
I never went to the link. What is it we are cursed with?
PS I am getting tons of junk too. For me it meeans about 75% more
auto-deletes than usual. I am so incapable of this, I can't even
understand this thread!!!!!!! Now I'm wondering what personal info one has
to enter to "join" those sites. I KNOW what's his name knows where I live.
(And no I won't explain on the board how you could do this in my case,
and to those who do know I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't spread it around
this week.) And damn, I'm getting so paranoid now, I'm wondering who sent
me these anonymous dozen roses.
My last posts were to McJane begging her to back off when I realized it was
"exceedingly serious". And interestingly, and creepily, altho I put
Cheesemanike on my block list, his posts still came thru.
Whoever it is must have a whole lot of time on their hands. And of course
it could be some bored teenager.
It sure isn't me, so please stop smearing me on the board.

I never threatened NYCYN or anyone else to "never stop harrassing".
I said I would not stop responding to Nycyn's harrassment of me, until she stopped.
The reason I changed profiles?
Simple NYCYN could not get my name right.
It's cheesemanike, and proud of it.
I'm gonna tell you again so you get it,
IT AIN'T ME.
I will not Ghost anyone and never send spam, period.

Puleeese Cheesmanike - You're not dealing with a naive chatboard newbie. I've been posting at AW since May 1999.
On the now WOMD thread, Cheesemanike posted on February 14, 2002 06:19:14 AM:
And no, I won't back off or ignore till she takes and gets mental health therapy, or stops with her insane threads.
With you till the end on this "complaint" of yours NYCYN.
posted on February 16, 2002 12:17:34 PM new
Never said I would harass. Said I would be with her till the end on her little complaint.
Why don't you post her harassing threads that started all this bull.
posted on February 16, 2002 12:22:03 PM new
Because I never read them, Cheesemanike. I told you that in the WOMD thread. Besides, someone else's behavior doesn't jusify your own. You and you alone are responsible for the words you choose to type.

Why not read her past posts? You are keeping up with this thread. Besides you are keeping copies of my narratives, why not keep copies of all hers to keep it even handed Irene?
And yes, I take full responsibilty for all my reponse postings to NYCYN I listed here.
No one, including me deserves to be harassed and cussed and threatened by NYCYN or anyone else here.
posted on February 16, 2002 12:40:27 PM new
just as I thought, NYCYN was monitoring this thread.
NOW she has an asthmatic child and has been at the hospital for the last 2 days. yeah, right!!!!
this woman has more crap than a herd of cows.
all of us who are adults should try to ignore this insane person until we can figure a way to nab her for what she has done here.
mcjane, if you want to feel sorry for her, you go right ahead. I do not want to read about or hear about anymore of her self serving crap. I feel bad that she is milking a truly trusting person like you.
posted on February 16, 2002 12:59:21 PM new
No Cheesemanike, no one should ever be threatened like that. No one should act like an enabler for that kind of situation either by responding which only allows the situation to continue to escalate.

I still say and will always say, NYCYN should have simply taken the $16.00 back like the seller, I believe her name was dellandogs, (hard to remember this has been going on so long) offered to refund NYCYN's money. This should have never gone on like it has. I am ashamed that I was even part of this, as all of us should be.
I apologize here and now for offending anyone on here, including NYCYN.
This needs to stop.
We all need to act like the adults we are.

She was not looking for sympathy.
cheese You got it backwards, YOU started with nycyn.
posted on February 16, 2002 01:06:43 PM new
Not sure where you got the idea i started with NYCYN, but I am stopping it here.
How bout you McJane?
Think you can stop?
I have.

A good rule to follow in life when measuring your own behavior is to choose someone you admire as your yardstick, not someone you despise.
(Now I'm waxing philosophic, time to get out this thread.)
posted on February 16, 2002 01:22:37 PM new
Itaintme or whoever you are... I dont believe I mentioned ANY names when I started this thread so why are you directing other peoples accusations towards me??? I have not (until now) mentioned NYCYN as others have so kindly get off my back and refrain from referring to me.
PS: You dont think I have a right to be ticked off by the crap in my email box? Well ya know what? TOO BAD.
MEOW
. I always get spam from that same anonymous sender! Awesome
