    I had alot of people reg using this email
    username@cashette.com

    It's some site where you get paid for the spam that people send you.

    I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about it because I am about to
    ban anyone registering from any e-mail address at cashette.com

    because it doesn't seem like a legit mail service, and with almost 10 regs from them in the last day, it looks strange, esp since the names are really similar and/or marketing type names.

    Yeah, nothing in life is free!

    I wonder if some marketing guy sold information on our location or something? We got a LOT of them lately.

    Maybe it was Concura. But thats just speculation.

    And so it begins, one nigerian scammer is banned.

    Let's see how many of these cashette people are spammers.

    Its probably the types of people who post info on "free great deals", etc. Other forums I visit autobans people with emails from certain websites.

    Post a list of the people with cashette emails, if any of them are +10 post count respected people we'll have to have a chat...

    Anyone who registers with an email address pointing toward a bot is suspect in my book.
