It’s summertime and as usual things are slow in the HYIP world. So, it’s a good time for an email safety tip.
Never post your email address in an open blog or forum! There are programs that scrape websites looking for email addresses. The addresses are then used for SPAM, sold or used for malicious purposes.
What can you do when you want to contact someone privately? Thanks to Luc in a recent comment for reminding us the best way. Join NoBS Network. You can put your email address in your profile and tell someone to look there. Or if you don’t want your address public knowledge, you can tell someone your NoBS Network user name and ask them to PM you there.
Another option is to code your address as a link in your comment. The code looks like the following example (without the spaces.) It will look like this: email.
< a {space} href = "mailto:anyname@anynetwork.com" >email< /a >
Stay Safe,

Using a mailto link isn’t really a good idea either, as it can just as easily be scraped from the source code. A better option is to make a small image with your email address on it, and link to that instead where possible.
Bots won’t be able to read the image, but human visitors will.
Thnx to u 2 sharonsopinion to remind again this useful info and put this comment here (on the front page) so more ppl will see.
Am sure now members will follow these advices.
