Saving TIG from spammers
August 18, 2009 - 05:24 AM

I have been getting these spams for quite some times. But I think, It is a causing concern now. There are many spam profiles on TIG now. They send a typical spam message to all members. Here is a typical example:

Hello dear,
My name is marian.
My hobbies are reading, music,watching of movies and playing of basketball.
I was impressed when i saw your profile and will like to discuss important
matter with you and as well as establishe a long lasting relationship with
you.Inaddition,please kindly contact me direct with my e-mail
address:marianboma@yahoo.com
Waiting to hear from you soonest.
With love.
Miss marian

I just would like to know, how such spams can be avoided on TIG.

I reported the female spammers --- would do the same with male ones -- and I have not got more of them recently. Thanks.
