Since I joined this Site and disclosed my correct age, I have been receiving an increasing number of Spam E-mails for Rollex Watches and penis enlargement - the daily flood is now up to my age in years - over 60!
Trying to extract my genuine e-mails (one or two do go to the Spam filter by mistake) everytime I sign in is getting just too much, so I am going to change my E-mail address shortly - sadly, I think I might have to consider coming out of the Group first, if so, then I would like to thank all of you who have communicated with me over these months. Have a great time.

Is it an Orange account Plim?
I get about 150 junk mails a day on my orange account (which i hardly use and will be shutting down soon), the junkmail filter they have is useless and the server is as quick as a Sinclair ZX81.

I'm sure someone will be along in a minute to tell me that I'm wrong, but as far as I know this site does not give your details out to 3rd parties. May be it's another site that you've given your details to that is sending you the spam not something to do with SH?
As I said I might be wrong but that is my understanding of things and I've never had a problem with being sent spam linked to my membership here

Im given to believe the same as PK and I too, have never received any spam since been here.
Have you asked admin if they can throw any light on things for you?

I have to say that I get little if any spam mail to either the account I use here or my 'vanilla' account. I doubt it is SH that is your problem Plim, sorry can't be more help than that but if I were you I would just set up a separate account for using normally (bad choice of words I know, forgive me.. a tad hungover!)

I don't get any spam on the email account I use for this site - MrFB doesn't either.
The spam is probably as a result of you clicking links from elsewhere.

You are 100% correct PK, the site does not give out email addreses to anyone, so if Plim is getting spam emails, he is very wrong in assuming they are coming as a result of this site.

I have more than one email account, one of them is specifically for use when we give out an addy to other people on swinging sites.
It`s the address that gets the least spam, in fact hardly any at all !!!
The fact that you know what these emails contain suggests to me that you are opening them. I had always understood that opening or deleting this crap was what indicated to the sender that your email account was live. I might be wrong , but as I say I don`t think this site is your problem.
No, you don't have to open an E-mail to read the heading - opening them would really be asking for all sorts of trouble!

I accept what you say, it could be co-incidence. However, cannot those with the knowledge find out even if the Site owner is confidential?
Wishing I knew more about how the Internet works.

Plim, I wasnt being flippant, I can guarantee 100% that the site does not give out email addresses to anyone. We dont allow users to post their emails anywhere on the site and have various filters in place to remove them if they are displayed.
It may seem a co-incidence, and as others have said, lots of people suffer from spam at some point or another, but please, don't automatically jump to conclussions and think that it is anything to do with this site giving your email details to anyone.

The bit in bold is not a nice accusation really.
You know enough about the internet to surf it and find then join a swingers site, set up email accounts and the like. You must have picked up the spam links from elsewhere.
Plim, why dont you just change your email address to a free one or something? I never get spam on my email address I have with the address I use with this site. And if I did start to get them now after nearly five years of being a member, I would look to see where else I have joined recently.
On my other address, I use groups etc now on that one I do get spam! I knew I would an accept thats part an parcel of being a member of those sites. Still annoying though!
As for confidentiality, I wouldnt be a member here if I thought that my email address would be given out to a third party. I have every confidence that my details, including email address are confidential and trust the site owners implicitly..

Thanks to you all:
Good point, about Groups at , I belong to six of them and have been in and out of others that were spammed to bits (which is why I left them).
I am re-assured about this Site, thanks - I think the Moderators and others officials work very hard too, I know their efforts are unpaid.
