Yay, today is spam day!

(As usual, do not go out sending email to people you don't know unless you don't mind receiving a lot more of spam later. Do not trust PMs from people you don't know, in general.)

LOL at "today is spam mail"

Fortunately I caught this one early and they're already gone...

The worst Spam is back.. I don't want to return to the times here I had to spend an hour deleting each individual Spam message.

I thought this was fixed and prevented but apparently bots have +1 IQ. I hope @msg-commander gets back soon.

Yep. Machines are taking over the world. I couldn't even get a PS5 preorder because apparently the bots are buying them ASAP and then selling them for 1K more. Yay.

Why Bots need consoles? And I hated clicking Spam for an hour each day and it's coming back..

At least @msg-commander deleted it.. All I have to do is click a million times more. Should be done by 2021.

Edit: Nevermind, thanks @msg-commander! You've saved me at least 10 minutes;)

Sorry guys, I've been on vacation this last week so I just now got the notifications. I think I got the worst of it but I'll be watching more closely for the next several days.

Bots buy the consoles so that the person who made and ran the bot can sell back the consoles to people at a markup of +1000 or more. Basically scalping bots.
