BiggerPockets SPAM Hall of Fame
I've gotten tired of people coming to the site and abusing our system by SPAMMING our members either through the forums, by email, or through our PM system.
If you are the recipient of unsolicited SPAM deal posts from any of our users, please let us know so we can remove them immediately from the site.
With that in mind, this thread will contain all the people who have come here and have abused the site and its members.
SPAMMER CAUGHT!
Username: Leonard
Offense: Sent masses of unsolicited PM messages to forum members in an attempt to get them to some mentor program
USER: cdybrkcan
Abuse of BiggerPockets for using our messaging system for SPAM.
We had several complaints that this user was sending unsolicited spam to them via our messaging system. She is no longer a member of our forums.
Josh,
As there has not been much posted does that imply you have stopped (controlled?) the SPAM issue? I tend not to see any and few others seem to mention it.

It is not a pervasive issue, but from time to time we still get folks who come on board and do it. When we're notified of it, we check to see if the person has just tried to get the attention of one or 2 people, or if they are out there trying to hit anyone and everyone. We then, of course, take action to protect the members.
Maybe this thread's name should be changed to hall of shame.
you might be right...
