Word of Mouth.com?
« on: February 16, 2004, 07:05:59 pm »
Does anyone know anything about this site?


I just got some strange e-mail that someone had submitted some items relating to one of my e-mail addresses.  I have no idea what it's all about and quite frankly i'm a little curious, but you can't find out anything unless you actually pay the site to tell you who posted what about you, as near as I can tell.


 Word of Mouth



As I said..I'm very curious and a bit alarmed.  Is this some sort of scam?

It's got to be a scam.  

The concept of 'word of mouth' is only effectrive if a lot of people can read it.  

If the public cannot read the comments then what good is it?  

Sounds like it's an attempt to scare people into giving them money.

I never try to contact a spammer.  It can only get you more spam.

Indeed.  I guess I was also partly curious if anyone else here had any experience with this particular site.
