Spamalot (Not the Musical)

You've been around the internet, and so you've probably had your fair share of the spam problem. (Or probably more than you'd like).

The scary thing is when you start getting spam that is from... yourself?!

Yep! It's happened to us. We've been getting some spam that seems to be coming directly from one of our main email accounts at cubecity.org...

But how can that be? We're not sending that stuff out...

It does seem kind of freaky. But, guess what? It's not all that uncommon; as we've discovered. Just look at this article.

Pretty much summed up, it says, "Email spoofing is rampant. Spammers often send email that looks like it came from you. And there's little you can do about it."

That's kinda frustrating news.

So, people, if you've found a weird email from cubecity.org that offers you some strange spam-like offering... please remember, it's not from us!
