Classifieds hit by Nigerian Spammers
Everyone -- A quick heads up. Please do not reply to an email that got send to the classifieds advertisers. Looks like the 419ers (Nigerian Scammers) are getting a bit tricky this time around and have found a way to bypass our security.

Needless to say, two more bouncers have been employed since last night.

Blows my mind....
This scam is almost older than the internet itself....

Hard to believe people still fall for it.

Sorry to hear you have been hit. Probably not alot you or anyone can really do.

Well, we're looking at banning virtually all of Africa and parts of Israel and UK which provide bandwidth to that continent.
