All those sites are associated with MARCO1, who used to be part of VBSEO (and not to be confused with Marco who worked for vb.org a few years ago).

Interestingly, the e-mail address my e-mail went too was the one I registered on VBSEO with.

We all know how Vbseo started with the mass emails. I received one too back in the days from Vbseo, that is how i found out about it. I am sure if it is an error spam, he will take care of it.

Can you share a copy of one of the 100's email you received?
Hmmm - curious. Are you defending these folks?

I got over 100 of these emails. I didn't sign up for their email list. There's no way to unsub from their email list.
There are a dozens more additional emails shown to all recipients. This is obnoxious and bordering on unethical.
Probably quite illegal in some countries as well, yes?



Anyway - horrible first impression.
Thanks for the 100+ emails vBRewrite. I'm not interested. Go copulate with yourself.

Jacquii, knowing you from the past, your curiosity doesn't concern me.

You can read between the lines, can you?

Katie - not recognizing you from the past - but certainly taken aback from the sordid tone of your current post here... There's absolutely no need to be a condescending smartass!

I didn't ask if you were concerned about my curiosity. I asked if you were defending these folks who sent 100+ unsolicited emails to me and several hundred other vB license holders.

Thanks for your most cryptic non-answer :down:

I guess you don't know how to read between the lines.

Whatever.

Allright - so you don't want to be in the middle of craziness. Understood.
But you are. You entwined yourself in it as seen via the 4th post of this thread and your other posts. So I AM curious. This is why I asked you if you were defending them. Obviously going back and reading the obvious ((apparently no reading between lines required)) ==> You are:

Apologies for asking a question which obviously made you defensive. It was not at all my intent, it was honestly ............. wait for it .............. curiosity!

Mass mailings are spam and spam is against the law. And it is not uncommon to get the same garbage over and over. Some spammers go as far as planting a mailer virus on others computers and use them as mass mailers. That would make your email system think it's coming from a different sender each time.

Katie hunter why are you defending this person and their obviously illegal actions?
Makes me wonder if you have something to do with this? Are you helping to send out these emails? Are they paying you to come in here and try to do damage control? If you are then you have access to sensitive and very private user information. You and your friend here at VB should be put out on your collective asses.
If I get one then I know you have something to do with this. Better tell your friend not to send me any emails. It's easy enough to pick the header apart and see where they are coming from.
Then hand that to the Feds.

I'm not rude. I just say what every one else is thinking...

I got 27 emails from them and I'm very unhappy about it. I will not be buying this product or recommending it to anyone. It's not needed anyways, they just see the dollar signs after vBSEO shut down.

Consistent, unique content is the best SEO.
