E-Mail and Spam
Starting on January 19th, we were notified by several people that we had "spammed" them.
We didn't.....at least, not intentionally.
It appears that spam messages were sent out under the guise of our "SUPPORT@athleteinme.com" address. We apologize for this, but, again, these messages were NOT sent by us. As of Tuesday January 24th, we believe we have made the changes necessary to shut down these spam messages.
But, just so you know:
We NEVER send spam. Also, we NEVER add a person's e-address into the subscriber database for our monthly e-newsletter without their permission. To do that is wrong, and, it's disrespectful. Further, we NEVER share anyone's contact info after they provide it to us. You can trust that we will always respect your privacy.
Since 2007, about 1 billion spam messages are sent each day! According to WikiPedia, about 88-92% of e-messages sent during the first half of 2010 were spam. This is infuriating. But, it's also reality.
If you receive a spam message that you think is from us, please forward it to us. Please reset your Preferences to display the entire routing header first....that will help us track down the servers these messages originate from. We will do what we can to suppress this activity.
To help put a stop to this, also forward your spam messages to the Federal Trade Commission at: spam@UCE.gov.
