Re: HollywoodPoker sells e-mails
 

Do the affiliates have access from their Hollywood Poker control panel to the players e-mail addresses? Because I never gave this address to my affiliate.

If they do, we can check whether we signed up through the same affiliate.

Hi All,

At Hollywood Poker we have a very strict privacy policy and would never sell your email address. We respect each and every player's privacy and would never condone the selling of email addresses.

Can you please answer my question: Do the affiliates have access to the e-mail addresses of the players that have signed up through them?

PS: More spam. This time from wheretoplayonline.com

Ups, I just noticed that this last spam message is addressed to me, I mean to my real name. Do the affiliates have access to the name of the players?

Affiliates dont ever have access to any personal info like email addresses, names, etc. unless you give it to them on their own affiliate based site.

every email i get is addressed to me personally and it even tells me that i signed up to the newsletter on a specific date, which obv, i never did.

too coincidental that i only starting getting them into my second email account when i linked that email to Hollywood.

in summary, HW guy, imo ur lying [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I'm also getting these emails promotion Tower Gaming bonus.

I made a completly new email and signed up for HWP about 10 days ago. And so far I've been receiving one email every 1-2 day, each one from a different domain. The email also contains my full name.

I'm 100% sure I havn't entred my email anywhere else than at hollywoodpoker.

I contacted live support and they told me I was signed through bonuswhores.com, yea I visited the site and maybe clicked the link from there but I never entered any details there. And from what I know bonuswhores is a serious site and they don't need to promote through spam. But anyway, how would they get my email and full name?

According to live support the affiliates cant see either your email adress or full name.

So the only explanation I have for this is that HWP either sell our emails/names, share their database with someone, an employee mines their database and to use for spam (far-fetched?)

Edit:

Adresses where the emails have come from in chronical order
@macpokergames.com
@bonnuswhores.com (note the extra n, not bonuswhores.com)
@wheretoplayonline.com
@onmydomain.com
@ecampaignsolutions.net

Yep, I have already received spam from all these domains.

Well, it is time for me to withdraw all my money from Hollywood Poker and shut down this e-mail address.

Re: HollywoodPoker sells e-mails
 

I too receive these emails from my Hollywood address. I own a domain and use emails like Hollywood@mydomain.com and that is where they are going. HP guy, either you are selling them or people are stealing them.

IMO Tower is pretty rogue to begin with. All of this affiliate spam and associations with sites cyber squatting long term legit sites. Not the type of people I would be doing business with.

something like kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk@gmail.com would work too
