Spam

Hi ^^; I had the same issue, even when I disabled the emails from Gaia option in the "account settings", I still got some emails relating to friend requests etc. Sooo I created a fake email on hotmail and changed my email to that fake email on my Gaia account (in account settings). there, the emails will go there instead, not to the account you use. Hope I helped!

No it isn't a scam but I wouldn't expect to be rolling in the dough immediately.

Look, from what I can gather from reading their sales pitch, they will point you into the direction of signing up with paid survey sites so you can make money taking surveys, participating in focus groups, etc.

They will then tell you to go to Clickbank and pick out products to advertise (they may even tell you the products and what to put in your ad) and direct you to Adsense where you will set up Pay Per Click campaigns. That is also a legitimate way to earn income, however, if not done properly adsense can cost you BIG TIME. You have to really know your stuff. I wouldn't follow their ads to a tee because everyone else who joins up with them are putting out the very same ads.

Making money with Adsense on your site....adsense sites are not as great a way to earn money as they once were. Google is very into fresh content and penalizes websites that appear to be just adsense sites.

So the site is not a scam. But you need to know that it is not a Get Rich Quick thing either. You will need to work your business. It is a home based business and you need to treat it as such. If you expect to plop down your credit card, pay the sign-up fee and see the money roll in....you will be severely disappointed.

I am not a member of this program. I do, however, work from home. Making money is possible and you can make very good money. You just have to put forth the effort, be willing to learn and (if you are lucky) find a good mentor.

* work-at-home-123.com - Blue Income - Steve Roberts is a SCAM Never refunded my money Internet * http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/344/RipOff0344663.htm * YES!!!!!! IT IS AN ABSOLUTE SCAM! Do not waste your time and hard-earned money with this program, and another "PaidSurveyPlan.com". They both collect your money through a "business" called NIV Consulting Corp., so I am presuming they are in the scam together. I stumbled upon them from a website called "Steve's reviews", pointing to both plans as legit. money-makers, with a "30 day guarantee for refunds". HA!!! I have been emailing them since I joined on Feb 2 for a refund, and they conveniently ignore me. I am quite sure I have been blocked from their "customer service" (I use the term loosely) by now. That's about $90 down the tubes. I guess I learned my lesson, but don't waste your time on these two huge scams!!!!! * This is absolutely a SCAM!!! : I read the ad on http://work-at-home-123.com/ and decided to try it. The web site says 30 day money back guarantee. After I reviewed the information I received, I saw I will be using my own money to do ad for this Steve Roberts. I wrote an email to request the refund the 2nd day(6/19/2008) and a few days after(6/23/2008). I have not heard anything back. And my money was not refunded. And do NOT believe any scan reviews that promotes this site as legit. It is probably he is promoting himself under a different name. Please learn from me and do not fall for similar scheme. To give you more information, this one says it will give you a free web site, but you will really need to join a internet service company and pay for that service yourself. Then they ask you to send them your username and password so that they can push information into your web site. You also need to join Clickbank so that you can get paid. All very suspicious. And the survey company's link do not have much good information, either. Some are broken, others you are entered into a drawing. : I think this person himself is a member of this site also and provided the previous answer I saw a week ago, which says it was not a scam.

United States - 18.9% of all spam.

Russia - 8.3% of all spam.

Turkey - 8.2% of all spam.

Unfortunately, yes. It is possible for an email to be sent from an address without actual access to the mailbox associated with it. This is known as "email address spoofing".

There is a verification system known as Sender Policy Framework, or SPF, to avoid this spoofing practice. It must be implemented on the mail servers directly, so unless one is actually running a mail server there isn't much one can do to enable it. Most mail servers do support SPF already, however, greatly reducing the risk of spoofing.

In 1999 a hoax e-mail chain letter began circulating throughout the internet stating AOL was merging with Microsoft (they never did) and/or that Bill Gates was sharing his fortune with internet users who participated in a Microsoft beta test by forwarding the e-mail to their friends and family. Microsoft's official statement regarding the chain letter was as follows. REDMOND, Washington, May 12, 1999 - Recently an e-mail has been circulating on the Internet about a new "e-mail tracking system" from Microsoft.

As you may have suspected, this is a hoax and did not originate from Microsoft.

Microsoft does try to investigate the source of these hoaxes and take appropriate action. However, many times the hoaxers take elaborate steps to shield their true identities and we cannot identify them. Privacy and security are very important to us here at Microsoft, and we work every day to build great software for the Internet that keeps information safe, secure and private.

We regret any inconvenience this may have caused you.

It definitely could be if it is unwanted. If a source is from a YouTube video though, like from an interview, then it may be appropriate to cite the video as a reference.

The process of converting a domain to IP address allows the system to access the DNS via resolver. The resolver then gets the domain name and goes back to the IP address or gets the IP address and looks for the domain name. When the domain name is converted to an IP address, this consists of the TCP's ability to operate and open a URL or send a datagram via the UDRP. It is then understood that all is manageable when a domain name is converted to an IP address.

No, it is not safe to do this in any website other than your email provider and always check to make sure in the address box that it's your email provider's address and not someone other website.

If someone spams you, you are very unlucky. Sorry for your loss.

They never did anything to you.

It is only for safety.

Internet protection can save you from virures, spam and other malware from getting on your computer. These viruses can steal your id, use your computer's resources and send you numerous emails or worse, shut down your computer.

I suggest getting a good Internet security program and make sure it will update at least 3 or 4 times daily to protect against the hundreds of new ones that out every day. In comparison to the cost of your equipment, software and time it is worht $.15 a day day to protect yourself and others. There is more good free info on the asystematics.com site All the best.

Contact can only receive IMS

In order to enable privacy protection for your domain name, you need to contact the Sponsoring Registrar and ask them if they provide the service. You can find the Sponsoring Registrar by performing a whois lookup for your domain name. If that service is not provided by the Sponsoring Registrar, you need to transfer your domain name to another registrar.

There are several ways servers deal with unwanted e-mails (spam). One way is to look for specific content in e-mails, like the phase "cheap viagra", assume e-mails with that specific content are unwanted, and delete them.

Another way, which is very effective in my experience, is to employ a service called a "DNS blocklist", or DNSBL. With such a blocklist, every time another mailserver tries to send mail to the server, it will check if its address is in the blocklist, and if it is, refuse to accept any incoming mail from the server in question. www.spamhaus.org is one provider.

According to Ken Hollis and the alt.spam FAQ: You cannot generally tell by a e-mail header which specific computer the e-mail came from. Just about every time you dial into your ISP (Internet Service Provider) you are assigned a different IP address. If someone sends you an e-mail and they log out, the next time they log in their IP address will most likely be different. If the computer has a permanently assigned IP address *and* you have the cooperation of whomever owns that block of IP addresses you *might* be able to get information on who might have sent the e-mail. About the only way to tell *exactly* which e-mail account the e-mail was sent from is to get the ISP (Internet Service Provider) to tell you. Usually the ISP will require you to get the local police involved (a warrant of some type) to force the ISP to give you that information. Even given that you know the account the e-mail originated from, a forger can find out that person's account / password and log in as them, they can gain access to that computer while the person who owns that computer is away from the computer or they could install a back door program that allows them to control that person's computer remotely. If this were to happen then the forger could send the e-mail and nobody would know who *specifically* sent the e-mail.
