discuss On my email daily comes spam from .xyz sites. On your email comes too?

[Igor Mironyuk]

Now when .xyz extension is available, on my email box comes spam from .xyz sites. I'm not alone who have such problem?

 

[Chirag]

No you are not alone and its just not only XYZ but other extensions as well. Avoid posting your email address on public pages to avoid bots searching for email address crawling all over the internet

 

[asset.domains]

coming from .website, .co , .me , .com as well....

I seem to find a pattern with spam that correlates with domain extensions that are on sale. If that particular period is some sell-out of some extension it will probably be used by spammers to make a new snow shoe from that extension.

Then it was also stranged I received a black reddish dot icon. And it says delete dot com. Has any has knowledge or experienced with this issues? I have a feeling this activities was all negative.

I have to delete that site I typed in. It might create issue. But that was the original message.

I'm not sure where it came from; I have gmail. But this kind of unwanted uninvited activities it's just an inappropriate behavior. I wish there are some site out there that will track this kind of activities. And I hate both player & games. I don't have time for this kind of behavior. Why are you blocking my screen? Preventing me from moving on with my business. It is just so unacceptable behavior. And this kind of activities should be stop and penalized!

Got a few spams from .xyz... that's what happens with cheap extensions. In fact, my limited experience with .xyz can be summed up as receiving spam, and I am not the only one.

should I blame verisign now for keeping .com around $10 and not around $100 ?

Its nothing about cheap domains brah. I have never received a spam from .xyz extentsion, if my memory serves me right.

 

[RapidNames.com]

.biz criticized before & now .xyz

 

[pmax]

All this talk about spam on a particular extension except dotcom is just weird.
Because most of the spam I get in my many email address end with .com.
That includes the junk offering web services pounding my inbox every time I register a new domain.

 

[Chirag]

the junk offering web services

I get like 10 emails+smses per day. I just delete them

 

[Tank]

I will go to my yahoo account which I have not checked in a year and was at 99999+ unread back then. I will count a few hundred spams and see who the winning extension is.. All this is just bashing extensions other than .com I get it. Com is King (which I agree)
BUT
I am willing to bet my spam mail count will place .com as king as well..

You should be careful: these spam emails may contain viruses and malware.

Finally another intelligent individual and that's alright if you don't invest in XYZ but the fact that someone decided to create a thread based off spam reports in their email box because of XYZ is just "funny to say the least."

Ditto, get quite a bit of spam from .XYZ. Give domains away and for cheap and they become the spammers choice. They should adopt that as their slogan...

.XYZ - The Spammers Choice!

And you can quote that.

I hate any extension given away free or sold for change as they turn into spam machines.

We blocked all .xyz domains from email about a year ago or more. Shortly after it came out and the spam inundation began.

The difference, of course, between .com spam and .xyz spam is that legitimate email comes in from .com, but not from .xyz -- it's just all spam.
