Hello All, Chances if us members just ignore messages like these spam messages, they will just go away! Use the delete key. Whenever I see a message I think is spam, I just press the delete key, and when or if it comes back, I simply press the delete key again, and I continue to press the delete key until the message disappears! I then move on. And, let’s not get mad at the owner, or with each other. Let’s not blame the owner either, as I am sure he has a life of his own just like we do, we shouldn’t expect the owner to babysit this list for us, so let’s do our part, delete key! This isn’t the first spam message I’ve ever seen, and I’m sure it won’t be the last, delete key! I just think it is unfair to blame the owner because of a spam message, and I’m sure Mark didn’t know when he approved the member, it would be spam. I’m grateful Mark has this list, and I don’t want to see him close it down or be blamed for messages such as spam. I don’t want to see Richard leave the list either, as he is a great source of information. These spam messages can be very annoying, as I can’t stand them, but there is only so much a person can do to stop them. So, my point in writing this message is to ask all of us to prepare for the next spam message we see on this list or any other list, so there won’t be any bashing.

Yes, it isn't about Mark, but I've not seen anything like this on groups.io groups. But now that Mark has implemented monitor status for all new subscribers, this should go away. Thanks Mark.

Such messages have nothing to do with Mark at all, they are common scams, I am on several Facebook Buy and Sell groups and the same sort of duct cleaning messages come up all the time.

Is there any chance that someone hates Mark for what ever reason? So this is maybe just a way to sabotage his list for some kind of pay back? What would happen if Mark just stopped aproving new members for a few weeks. Maybe the person doing this would get tired of getting rejected when they try to join. Maybe we could get a few weeks break.

I really like the iPhone E-Mail List and do find out a lot of good things from it. And occasionally I can share a thing or two with the list. The spam and things that we have been getting is annoying but I guess we just have to get closer to that delete button and delete it until something can be done About it. I just hope the person that is doing the spams will wise up, which is unlikely.

We’re scheduling a dryer vent cleaning and if anyone else is interested, we can get a group discount. Normally, this service costs $350, but if more people sign up, the price drops to $150 per home! Not cleaning your dryer vent increases the risk of fire in your home because lint and dust build up inside the vents, which can become a serious fire hazard. We’ve used this service before, and they do an excellent job. (he does duct and chimney cleaning if you need that as well) If you’re interested, please PM me your contact info and address, and I’ll arrange a convenient time. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
