Re: [FWDLK] Spammers

It's not that spammers CHOSE this list.  It's as simple as folks making
poor password choices.

If you have a password that is a plain old name or word, it can be
broken in a matter of seconds.  Spammers take advantage of that to break
into folks' email accounts, and then send spam to everyone in their
address books (or inbox, or sent mail).

If any of you are using weak passwords, please take the time to change
them to something more secure.  (MiXEd case, numb3rs, etc.)

Just as a general interest question, does anyone know how several
(more-to-come?) spammers got or determined that the FWDLK was a viable
website/discussion address?
