LinkedIn shitty emails achieve new low with "puzzle games". I never use Linkedin. I have unsubscribed from every email list. I never engage with the platform, unless a colleague sends me some post they shared. I then use cookie blockers. But now they think my prof status matches these incredibly shitty games. This so called world professional platform is the best example of enshittified user data farming.

Hey [insert brand name], sending me unsolicited emails that I can’t unsubscribe from is one of the best ways to lose me as a customer, and does NOT encourage me to buy more of something…

From: Runbox <[redacted] [at] gmail [dot] com>

Subject: Urgent: Your Runbox Email Outdated

Dear Runbox User,

Regarding the recent changes on your webmail.

Your mailbox has been outdated since August 14, 2025.

The "Complete Here" link directs to: hxxps://catenacciovintage [dot] com/$RANDOM_ID

The email was received to an address I used specifically and SOLELY to sign up for ffmpeg's trac bug tracker; however I more suspect the user that "sent" this email had their gmail account compromised.

If I want to put an email address on a website, what is the best way to prevent scrapers to use it for spam etc. ? I read some different techniques only, but they only sound like easy to circumvent. Somebody actually can tell me what works best?

Der KI-Spam wird immer fieser. Damit kann man sicherlich einige Leute einschüchtern.

Wenn man genauer hinschaut steht da natürlich totaler Bullshit, aber stellt euch vor, ihr seid vielleicht noch nicht so lange in Deutschland oder tut euch aus einem anderen Grund mit der Sprache und der Bürokratie schwer!

✉️🗑️ Annoying email spam thing happening to me right now.

My non-Google email address got added to some spam Google Group(s) along with a bunch of other people (so the to/reply-to addresses are Groups alias).

Another victim's mail server is sending auto-responders to the group about incorrect addresses and now other people in the spam group who don't understand what is happening are responding to the auto-responders because it's super annoying.

The whole thing is stupid.

This is the weirdest email I've received yet. Clearly this seems like a spam message? I don't know a Tom that has/would have had a BT Internet email...

I removed the leader username as I assume this is a hacked account.

So I have a question for the Mastodon hivemind. A long while back, I signed up for an event through EventBrite. Went to the event and that was that. Or so I thought. Ever since then, I have received non-stop spam from them, or rather event organizers through them. I have logged into my EB account and unchecked every box, but I still get these invite emails. Anyone have a solution that will end this?

A vector for e-mail spam: your former mortgage company which sold your mortgage to your current or another former mortgage company.

Their excuse: They have had legitimate business dealings with you.

I'm monitoring the work inbox today. We got an email from someone at a completely different company reporting what looked like spam.

Being new, I wondered if they were a contractor or maybe using a private email (they weren't).

I've never seen such specifically targeted spam before! Usually it's "here's your invoice" or "please help me unlock my money", not "I've got spam".

(And no, it wasn't a typo. Ambulance trust not equals mobile operator)

#ChatGPT excels at creating responses that are plausible and convincing at first, rather than reliably correct and accurate.

That's potentially very bad.

One of the big areas of application for such a tool will be #EmailSpam, #Phishing and semi automated #OnlineFraud.
