Korg Forums

Apparently KorgForums got about roughly 1000 new members in 3 weeks, so it probably hasn't really gone unnoticed. Good luck... It's a shame a good forum like this is suddenly submitted to spam-attacks. Love this forum, hope it doesn't get hi-jacked by spammers.




Without a doubt you've already spotted these guys, but it's pretty annoying when you think suddenly every topic on the forum has a new discussion, and it turns out just to be one of these w*nkers. I'm sure it's within forum policies to put their accounts here, and I'm sure you can delete them (if you're not already working on that; if so, apologies for my impatience)

And in case other spammers show up: Happy hunting!

Thanks for the heads up. I'm working on it now. These guys won't be able to do this once we upgrade the boards.

Good to hear you are working on it.

KorgForums is by far the best forum I know (and use).

Constant battle Robin.

Thanks for the heads up.

but maybe not only spamming
Once I was trying to organize a group order from Alibaba / China
and wrote , that I am a newbie with paypal .

Later I received a fishing mail on my special forum email adress
about issues with my paypal account
and I should get in contact with somebody ???

as I dont use my waterdrum email adress for money transfer
(not that stupid !)
I reacted the Austrian way : I did "not even ignore it" ....
same for spam
My official paypal account is OK
still wondering

The analog synths forum exploded.

Oh man, now I have to delete 169 individual posts!
