jig n' jerk Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I recieved an email from a guy named trevor stating that he is over at the "new" (Contact Us Please) fishing site. He says he wants to tell everyone about it and there is a hyperlink to the site. I really don't care about the e-mail (I've been there but FM blows them out of the water), but I am curious as to how he got my e-mail adress. I was wondering if anyone else recieved this e-mail?

jig n' jerk Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 Yeah, I looked at there site once and it was nowhere near the caliber of fishing minnesota. Any ideas as to how they got our e-mail adresses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IFallsRon Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Same thing happened about a year ago when there was some hurt feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I know for a fact that FM has never given away or sold any e-mail addresses... That is not our style.. the only thing I can think of is if you posted your e-mail in any of the posts? Also, some people have thier e-mail in their signatures.. that would be a dead give away as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanson Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Quote: Any ideas as to how they got our e-mail adresses? Have you ever posted your e-mail address here before in a post? Or at any other outdoors related forum? Or registered at that site? They've been known to troll the forums here looking for addresses, and then you get an e-mail. Part of their "guerilla" method of recruiting members. Your registration with FM is safe, if that is what you are wondering. Nobody can get your address unless you post it online. EDIT: Geez Deitz. We think alike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofishfisherman Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I got it as well. I assume he got the email addresses when you post your email to recieve pics of a for sale item. I know I have posted mine recently to have someone send me pics of a truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augusta Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I have recieved those e-mails in the past only after I posted my e-mail address. I think the others are right, they troll looking for e-mail address's. You should have read the e-mail I sent him after I looked at their site.
