Doitfuckingnow.com - email harvesting?

1 pointtjic1 comment

Several months back someone posted about doitfuckingnow.com here on news.yc.

I signed up, gave a throw-away email address (tjic_doitfindnow_com@...), and never heard of them again.

...until today, when I got spam sent to that address.

Has anyone else had this experience?

This was a rip-off of an idea I had three years ago: http://inspir.es/post/26544333/on-productivity

The only difference is that I didn't put ads on it, submit it to social bookmarking sites or ask for visitors' email addresses for no discernible reason.
