Being blasted with spam from BNP
Posted by holy-cow on August 7, 2016 at 3:01 amBNP’s rpls has tried to get past my spam filter six times today. It has been a couple of years or more since I have wandered over even once to see what was happening there, which was very close to nothing.
Anyone else experiencing this currently?

Now that you mention it, I got one the other day. I hadn’t had an email from them for years. I wouldn’t call it spam. It was a notice about a posting at their forum. I think they have a relatively new editor who is probably trying to resurrect the forum.
I just read it and hit the unsubscribe.
If I file something as spam, it becomes spam forever including future mailings.
I don’t check my spam folder.
I check over there maybe every few months to see if there is anything of interest. There isn’t.

In the last couple days, I’ve had a half-dozen notices of new postings on there. They didn’t sound too interesting so I just deleted them. I haven’t posted there in a long, long time, but I suppose there could be something new on an old thread.

5 times today! Tried Robert’s advice to unsubscribe. Got an
“We are currently down for maintenanceWe will return shortly.”
Chaps me off! I’ll try to unsubscribe tomorrow.

[USER=444]@Jules J.[/USER]

I got a small flood a few weeks ago, but no more. perhaps it is getting filtered out by the ISP

I also received a couple of messages today, realised where they were from, and also hit the unsubscribe button

I have dozens, literally, haven’t been able to stop it yet.

No good trying to log in, can’t change password.
I think they’ve been hacked.
DONT CLICK ANY LINKS IN THOSE EMAILS
-
I doubt they have been hacked. It has been their business model for years.
Have a search, they probably still sell their contact list openly.BUT true, don’t click on links… that just confirms that the email was received, and that raises the sale value and encourages even more spam.

I was able to log in this morning and change my subscription choices, which were suddenly everything possible, and certainly not what I had formerly set.

Their site won’t let me log in. It could be I’m using the wrong email.
Certain classes of my work is now absolutely nothing goes over email. Snail mail, in person or over the phone, that’s it, no email allowed. This is recent. Email is easily discoverable and is insecure.

Report it as Spam. Gmail is blocking all communications from them now (at least for me). I’ve disabled all notifications on the site and I still keep getting them…
