[TowerTalk] spam

[WD4K]

I too have been covered up recently with spam offering business related
services-credit card programs, business web setups etc.  I only noticed this
increase after buying some ham related items from Ebay-prior to that,
belonging to towertalk, F12 and other ham reflectors, I did not see a lot of
spam-I now get 8 or 10 sometimes in a single day-I think it is Yahoo and
Ebay related -beyond a doubt!!

I'm not saying it is triggered by posting on THIS list, but I've also
noticed heavy spam since getting on TT.  It could be just coincidence of
timing with the spamming technology.
