Are you tired of those drive by ICQ requests for add from people you dont know? Well now I know where they are coming from....
Panther CDN is one of those companies that is spidering YOUR ICQ number from adultwhoswho for drive by ICQ spam.

Heres my conversation with Wally after he tried to add me December 20th and I politely blew him off...

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (16:58:58 4/01/2008)
you tried to add me on dec 20th. You solicted me out of the blue with ICQ spam.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (16:59:28 4/01/2008)
So you dont know who I am do you Wally? Your spamming my ICQ trolling for business is that it?

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image1.gif Wally (16:59:59 4/01/2008)
look - im not trying to offend. just following up on what i mistakenly took as a conversation of interest.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image1.gif Wally (17:00:11 4/01/2008)
so my apologies for the mistake

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:01:47 4/01/2008)
Your full of shit Wally. Let me tell you who I am. I own an adult webmaster board called Oprano.com and now Im going to post theis enitre ICQ log along with warning people how you spam thier ICQs that you get from AdultWhoswho. You cant even own up to half assed marketing attempts.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:02:30 4/01/2008)
Where did you go Wally?

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image1.gif Wally (17:02:45 4/01/2008)
still here - looking through my notes to see where i made a mistake

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:02:58 4/01/2008)
you spammed me that was the mistake.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:04:00 4/01/2008)
Ill be sure and let Derick Merker know that your taking his information and spamming people to troll for business so you can be banned from AdultWhoswho.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image1.gif Wally (17:05:20 4/01/2008)
this wasnt an intentional spam - so that's why im apologizing if it seems that way

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:05:42 4/01/2008)
Your marketing is very half assed you had no idea who I was or what I did. If your looking for some exposure Im going to give you some. Im sure your boss will be real happy. IT WAS FUCKING SPAM. Your trolling for business. WEAK for a hosting company.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:07:20 4/01/2008)
I hope your having a booth or a table at Internext I will make sure to find your boss so I can get a picture to post up with this log post as well so you guys can be PROUD of the weak assed marketing you use.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:08:09 4/01/2008)
wanna follow up some more wally?

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:08:45 4/01/2008)
Where did you go Wally?


http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:10:36 4/01/2008)

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:11:47 4/01/2008)
ADMIT YOU WERE TROLLING FOR BUSINESS WITH ICQ SPAM

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image1.gif Wally (17:14:12 4/01/2008)
ill take 100% responsibility for the mistake. i was provided with a list of some companies that were going to be attending a conference. i was going through and making sure i did my due diligence.

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:14:49 4/01/2008)
A list harvested for spamming from AdultWhosWho

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image1.gif Wally (17:15:27 4/01/2008)
i am alerting my mktg team right now about the mistake - and will do what it takes to prevent it from occurring again

http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/Image2.gif GonZo (17:16:56 4/01/2008)
one sec Ill help you out with that

************************************************
I suggest removing your ICQ number from AWW ASAP if you want to avoid this kind of half assed marketing.

Also avoid companies like Panther CDN who use ICQ spam for marketing.
Its certainly not a host Id trust anything with if thats the best they can do.

I've had a few of those... not sure if it was from AWW tho.

I usually tell the guy to take a hike much quicker than you did Gonzo LOL.

BTW... Are there other people here who get add requests from total strangers and then in turn deny them? I just can't add someone as a friend whom I've never even MET muchless HEARD of.

There are also a similar group of assholes out there using ICQ to broker deals on domains they don't own, nice low prices, just "need to move the domain for some cash", always pay by epassporte, and then they disappear like the breeze.

No end of fun in this world!

I only respond to "HIT ME UP!!" and keeping in constant contact with my "bros" that need me to bump their homophobic pic posts.....and the occasional russian chat babe that always asks me to visit her in chat.

Whenever I hit someone up on ICQ for the first time, I always leave a note about who I am and what I want to discuss. And unless someone does the same with me, I just ignore their attempts. Keeps my list clean.

I also get the strange characters from the keyboard, which is often followed by something.cn

It seems there would be a lot of places to harvest icq numbers from.

What makes you think it was harvested from AdultWhosWho GonZo?

I feel left out. (Not).

About a year ago I used to get a ton of icq spam, like every day.

Suddenly one day it just stopped. Lucky I guess.

I spoke to Derick a little bit today.
This isnt a slam on AdultWhosWho... and he said he was going to change the ICQ # to an image.

It will still get harvested by companies that are weak like where Wally works but at least it will make it tougher.

Class act Derick.

ANd if you have celeb traffic MrSkincash is this the place for it!

so, spammers will just have to type the number out instead of copy/pasting...no skin off their back, just 3-4 seconds more work

I didn't think you were slamming them. Was just asking the question out of curiosity.

Derek is cool and so is Mr Skin. I promote them much.
