ANNOYED WEBSITE CLASSIFIED ADS OPERATOR QUERIES OTHERS

Posted on by

I received this email a few weeks ago from an annoyed webmaster. I emailed a few suggestions but I never received a response. At any rate, I hope the suggestions helped.

Annoyed Webmaster said…

“I have been contacting webmasters of classified sites (I run one as well) regarding how they deal with 419 scams. We started blocking IP addresses at server level and wondered what things you may be doing to better serve your users. I am thinking of creating a list of IPs to share and compare with others. All the best!”

I wonder what other website classified operators were doing to deal with low-life scammers and spammers. I think some of the large classified ads operators might be banning IPs, too.
