I use the same practice with one of my domains (note my posting address for example), and I too posted to this effect a few days ago regarding Cashcards. Steve then posted in response and I revisited the issue and sure enough, I found a place on the cashcards website where the email address I used was exposed, and thus, harvestable by outside parties. Since the email address is indeed exposed on the site, it cannot be stated with certainty that Cashcards sold the address. In the meantime Steve has stated that the developers on their end were going to try to close that up. They'll probably have to now that its happening to more of their users. -mark password: --- http://www.goldclicks.net http://mark.jeftovic.net --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.
