Fake profiles and spam     posted on 29th of july, 2011



There seems to be more fake profiles and spam occurring of late. Not sure why but unfortunate and I certainly encourage everyone to report them. Do wish I had a grumpy face photo but a nice photo of a gorilla (which are lovely animals) is the best I can do.

Kind regards,
Derek.

I wondered whether people should have to have had some photos accepted before they can post to blogs for example as that might reduce some spam. (The profiles I've encountered and checked on have had no photos accepted, which suggests they have possibly have no intention of anything but spam). - posted by Dprogers on August 01, 2011
I was also spammed twice, as long as it doesn´t become too much.. - posted by Physi28 on July 30, 2011
Spammers are getting on my head lately. Let`s hope we all somehow get rid of them! - posted by Thanatonautii on July 30, 2011

What would be ironic is for a spammer to comment here :P - posted by Georgeskyrillos on July 30, 2011

>I love travelling to new destinations aiming to capture the essence of the people, place and time. I particularly like black and white photography in certain instances as it captures the mood and texture of the place or person. At other times colour is necessary to show the vibrancy, life and energy. Please have a look at my website if you would like to see more images.
