Poll: Who is to blame for sellers leaving Wagglepop en masse?

Concerning the spam mail...someone tried to insert their logo as a siggy. It is an actual WP seller...I checked.

By the way...that spam email I received from one of the poptards was signed by a Moe & Smoe. Where I work...a MOE is a very very bad thing.... Nono

The email says the following for those who are curious:

Quote:Thanks for your Business!!

My name is xxx xxxxx. Most people call me xxx.

In the past, we have completed business together either on Ebay and/or Wagglepop. I am

writing all my customers to let them know that my wife (xxxx) and I have opened a NEW online

store on Wagglepop.

Our store, has many items to choose from including name brand clothing ( Polo, Hilfiger,

etc), collectibles (Precious Moments,Homco, etc), Big & Tall items, household, and all kinds

of other things to suit your needs.

As store owners, we pride ourselves on customer service. We always maintain integrity when

dealing with our customers. We use accurate descriptions as well as provide photos with

EVERY item we list. Your satisfaction is our priority.

In order to reward customer loyalty, we have added a Red Carpet Discount Program to our

store.
This feature allows anyone that has purchased from our store to receive an AUTOMATIC 10%

Discount on EVERYTHING in our store for LIFE!!! The discount is given on a customer's second

purchase and never goes away.

Again, we would just like to thank you for your past business. We look forward to your next

visit.

Then the logo link that Fine mentions which does lead to a WP store. I wouldn't mind this email being sent to me if I'd been a past customer but I truly don't believe I was. And as I mentioned earlier, the unhidden bulk recipients is a big no, no. Welcome spam bots!!

Yep, same exact email as mine. I never bought from them, and don't even know who they are. I DID do business with the bead lady that has her email on there along with mine, YOHB, have you done any business with any of those people??

How did they get your email address?

WTG YOHB, So now Platzki and I can each get a dollar k?

Why sure! I believe in sharing the wealth.

I have no idea how they got my email address but O Romeo might be on to something.

My ONLY sale on that site was a little pink suitcase some of you might remember. She paid for it and told me to keep it. That was my only dealing with her. I did buy some hair bows come to think of it....but I didn't see that email on there.
edited cause that wasn't very nice. *lol*

It would be very sad if someone is getting other people's e-mail addresses and are spamming. The original seller may or may not know, but the spammer definitely did with all of the bcc's.

That may be a mystery solved. As Alskling said, this is not the first time this has happened.

But Fine, that's my point. They were NOT bcc!! And that is what ticks me off.

Plaz, I'll take your advice and not respond. The issue is now dead - like some baseball players.
