BST Bump Service - What else remains??

[nichexposure]

Just got this at inbox -

​

I believe it's totally against the forum rule. They are claiming they got 100+ active account here. People are doing business by breaking the rules. Really feels bad to see this one.

Wow dear.

The staff is looking into that as many people got that message.

Of course, any seller who gets caught doing that sort of thing is will lose their sales thread and possibly get banned as well so it would not make sense to take that chance.

wow dear

Had it too in my inbox. Pretty sad

That's going to get messy

Can't this site be reported to google? No GDPR, no about us?

 

[KraftyKyle]

Curious, how did they get everyone's emails?

You expect an about us page for such service site? I don't think reporting to Google will do anything. Reporting for what? Having multiple accounts at BHW? That's not an issue for Google.

Curious, how did they get everyone's emails?

From Sales thread for sure because we put our email in sales thread for communication.

That was a 'smart' move by some over-'smart' 14 year old site owner, but not 'smart' enough to 'outsmart' BHW.

Maybe they run another service here? And collected them from past customers?

Probably what @nichexposure said, they most likely scraped the BST threads. Though I have a BST here, but did not get an email sent to me... most likely because I put my email in an image.

I out-smarted them!

Sellers do display their e-mails on the BST often times. I haven't been messaged(never had a BST here), so I'd figure it's that or they requested samples sent to e-mails so they can collect them. People who received the e-mail should all speak up, so the mods could have an idea what's the common link.

Although this one appears to be new, I've had a fairly good inkling previously that there was a private group (or even groups) doing this already.

Very clever OP. Advertising your service on BHW. I'm onto you.

 

[Gogol]

Wow dear, so.. BST problems solving service after love problems!

You exactly got me, sire.

 

[mickyfu]

You exactly got me, sire.

Only joking, I was just bumping my free advertisement. That is the business I'm into, bumping.

Would the account @thecreativewebs have anything to do with you?

Actually just noticed that...that one is not my ID. Maybe they send a bulk email. Even I am seeing a BST live here under this email.
