someone's name with an email address
Users who are logged in to Joomlacode.org who take specific actions such as submitting an issue to a tracker or downloading a release package
have their identities recorded as part of the operation ofGforge . If you submit an issue to the tracker your name, email address and any
information you have provided in the "My Account" page is publicly viewable.This is part of theGforge application that we cannot modify. User
expectations are greater than ever before and people are demanding more and more from the sites they visit. This is a list of common reasons a
website may fail to attract beneficial traffic.

SPAM is a huge problem, and we wouldn't want to do anything to encourage it. Harvesting email addresses from web pages is a common
trick used by SPAMmers. Spammers can find your email address using a number of methods. They regularly scan the Internet for new
addresses to spam, using special software designed for the purpose of "harvesting" these addresses off of Web pages. SpamMotel then records this
reminder note, and logs the date and time. As soon as our server has recorded this information (almost instantly), it creates a special e-mail
address for you to give out instead of your real one.
Spammers can also obtain the email address without the person's help, simply n n by guessing it. Surprisingly, this is a common
process, and can be quite effective. Spam spiders are not smart enough to remove the "nospam" portion of the address, but most humans
see what's going on right away. Spammers' software visiting the page would harvest the bogus email addresses and follow up the link, entering an
infinite loop polluting their lists with bogus email addresses.
Websites or phone solicitations that claim they can or will register a consumer’s name or phone number on the National Do Not Call
Registry — especially those that charge a fee — are almost certainly a scam. Consumers may register directly, or through some state
governments, but never through private companies. Web site IdentiFight searches popular web applications for accounts linked to an email address
you specify. The main purpose of IdentiFight is to show you what information is available online to anyone who has your email address, then to
help you cut the connection between your address and that info when possible.
