I have'nt . However, I'm curious to know why you posted this query here? Are you suggesting the SPAMMER harvested your address from WHT?

No, it's not just you. This guy has been nailing my support@ address hourly since midday yesterday. Each one is coming from a different IP in a different part of the world.

He was hosted with an alabanza reseller - said reseller was pretending to have nuked the site while actually still hosting him a few directories down. As of right now, it looks as though Alabanza has nuked him for real this time.

Same here. Lately my spam is worse than normal. Dont you also love when they send it to like 20 address @yourdomain so your catch all is full of the same crap?
