Message problems..

This morning when i logged into MSN, i like seven add reuqests

How?
My messenger shouldn't be on my profile..

This is the only site that's hooked up to my hotmail account in any way shape or form.
[and i know it wans't the other site i'm sometimes on, because the names were girls]


What gives?

Your email isnt on your profile so no one from here could add you.




There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.

do you get a lot of spam to your hotmail? do you use the preview message?

If you do turn it off as just by opening a spam mail will confirm to the spammers your email is active they can then spam your account and they can even try it for your msn.

The best thing to do for msn is don't accept them and report as spam

It's nothing to do with this site, I've had spam in this form recently too - there seems to be a spate of it at the moment. (And no, this account feeds into a googlemail email - not hotmail).

Hope that helps.

p.s.
The spam was before I put my account thingy in my profile - it's stopped since I put it in, oddly enough. o.0

an easy way to tell what sites have your email that people can see is search for it in google, then go tell that site to remove it. You will find it's not RYL

I know the problem is with your messenger but your messenger connects to a email address and spammers are trying new things including trying to get you to add them to your msn then spam your email and spam you over msn
