The Rough World out there : "Grouply"   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #305 of 492 |
Hi All

In case you get an invite to join on "Grouply" be aware this online
service to simplify all the groups you are a member of into one
application portal has a very dubious reputation so should be avoided.

It would seem spammers are using it to harvest emails address's.

Excerpt below is from a yahoo moderators group that is trying to
manage the problem.


Kevin


"In order to join Grouply, the member is Required to give their Yahoo
ID and Password. This is how Grouply accesses the Grouply subscribers'
messages, et al. Ordinarily, most of us will not give our Passwords to
a third party. But, the grouply sign up box has the Yahoo logo on it.
Some of my group members thought Grouply was a new part of Yahoo and
signed up."
