Good Grief - found this on some of my market place ads this morning:

Hello my dear My name is Regina,i saw your ads today here in tug2.com and liked it. I want to have a business relationship with you even more.I will also want you to reply me in my inbox so that i can give you my picture for you to know whom i am and let you know about my proposal. All i need is your honesty and co-operation. Yours, Regina.


Brian - thanks for changing the ad system so our emails aren't showing!

Hiding the e-mail addresses just slows the scammers down preventing them from sending out bulk messages. It won't stop them from trying.

What To Tell Regina.

Tell Regina to Buy Resale & Save Thousands.

That's the best advice -- & best spam response -- she'll get all day.

we got the report of regina over the weekend and deleted all her messages. sadly it caused another issue with members being notified they HAD messages, then going in and not finding any.

Sorry about that too =)

just please dont respond to these messages, as once you do...you give them your email address!

Brian, personally I wouldn't mind seeing I had a message and then found out you deleted the Regina type message out of the system.

I read it and deleted it myself(twice).
