Coincidence that the very next day after I posted a new email that I begin getting porno spam for the first time on this new email?

Just paronoid or what?

I sometimes forget that many other surfers come across this site who are not Datsun enthusiasts but who just may be snooping around and happen to find a new email address to submit to a spamming company for $1.

I've been thinking about how one might harvest email addresses.

If I had an unlimited download ISP, I could use something like wget etc, to leech entire sites, and search through the pages for email addresses Looking for "*@*"

I reckon if you targetted active sites, especially ones with forums, then you'd get a lot of email addresses, very quickly..Hmm at $1/email address? I could pay for my internet access in no time

I'm kidding. But it's all possible.
