I made mine private also - I thought I had already done that.
I've received a few spam emails from Startel Technologies Inc. I went to their site and "unsubscribed". I'll probably get more spam now.

The question is more important than the answer.

This is funny: From Startechtels web site. https://www.startechtel.com/privacy.html Startech Telecommunications does not send unsolicited "junk" email (spam). We may use email to communicate with our customers, to respond to visitors' emails, to confirm orders placed online, and to send information that a visitor has requested. If you receive an unwanted email from us, you can simply reply to ask not to receive future emails.
Startech Telecommunications provides an unsubscribe function in its email campaigns in order for subscribers to opt out of further email communications from us.Can anyone interpret that?

The bots are getting pretty advanced. In fact they can now not only fill in the contact us form, but they can read those terrible alphanumeric graphics that are supposed to eliminate them.

Thanks everyone.. I didnt realise the Email Addresses were public by default.
I love unique email addresses for registrations on sites like these.. makes managing spam so much easier!
Cheers, Dunc
