Is it just me?  I've noticed something odd happening to me lately,  Ive been getting all these useless emails from people Who "found me on MM"  but they are going to my actual email address.  (which I do not post ANYWHERE!)  It started happening when I started going to the shoutbox,  now I'm getting emails from fake agents, and dillholes with "a fresh new website"  that "love my look, and think I could go far"  (LMAO!!!).

I guess I'm skimming the subject though, how are these people getting my Home email address?  and is anyone else getting things sent to an unlisted email from scam artists? (I know there are a few, Ive seen the other topics posted along the same lines, or about the same "companies" )

Does the email spam say mm or just "I love your profile"?

The later is a common tactic right now for spam.
So many people have a profile somewhere that they spam everyone with this message.

Very annoying.
