You gotta love when someone IMPORTS your name onto their list....starts emailing you and then Uses a Foreign Language to describe their Unsubscribe Button....one more shady tactic if you ask me.

This ties into Tiffany Dows Post about affiliates.......

***By the way....this email came with the Subject line "You Check is Waiting"...uhh....I know where my checks are coming from...and you my friend are not one of them...nor would I ever want a check from you.


*** And for anyone who still uses these headlines....They are played out and only irritate people...especially new marketers who are really trying to make their first money online.

This is the third time it has happened....now...perhaps it's an iContact thing...but because I use iContact, I'm not so sure that's the case...but then again, I'm not trying to find way's to cheat the system.

If you provide value, and give your list exactly what they signed up to receive ...then you don't need to be deceptive.

Sorry....I have not had a rant in a long time....just got this email and was like...You've got to be kidding me.

Anyone else see this?

Am I off base...is it an iContact thing?

Sean


PS....a word to marketers, Don't assume that your list is made up of a bunch of idiots. Emails like this show one thing...Greed....you don't give a flying Monkey.... about me...you just want me to promote your Subpar product that will be riddled with Refunds, customer complaints and another flaming review thread in the Warrior Forum "Internet Marketing Review Section"

    I've been getting a lot of spam that I never opted in to get ... not just regular spam ... list spam that I shouldn't be on. Some from the Warrior Forum harvests emails and adds them to their lists. Some have unsubscribe info and some do not. Some even specifically mention the Warrior Forum, although they don't identify themselves.

      I'm with you on that one....and at the end of the day...it comes with the territory...I just unsubscribe. But now to use Spanish or French (not sure what that is) to disguise your Unsubscribe link is just ridiculous....i think.

      For someone who doesn't know any better...they may never be able to get off a list...lol

    BTW some lists are SEEDED! Some people HERE have seeded! Sometimes I have! Sometimes places I have been with make a MISTAKE and end up seeding! Want an example? OK!!!!

    My middle initial is C! EVERY place that I have done business with, with my middle initial, KNOWS that, EXCEPT ONE! The California DMV! THEY think my middle initial is L!

    Whenever I got stuff with the middle initial of L, I knew THEY sold the list!

    I have sometimes seeded my email account in a similar fashion.

    BTW this is stuff that is really just not possible to really catch.
