Anybody else being bombarded by AIMs?

I'm getting hit by some IM bot, on the name "ann0y1ngb0t##" and "kcepcmcire##" where the ##'s change..

I'm guessing it's someone from this forum, because I don't have my AIM name posted anywhere else. Another member here is getting the same thing.

This is why I block everyone who is not on my buddy list.

Could be that spac3d dickhead, he still lurks I take it since he registered on the beta forums, complete with his bigot signature and all. Thinks he's banned there too now.

 

[Eli]

Where is that setting? lol

Ah, found it..

I shouldn't have to do that though. Bastards.

Didn't you two both get antagonized by somebody a few months ago? Or am I thinking of somebody else?

and also why i changed my sn in my profile to one i rarely use.

 

[RagingBITCH]

I also block everyone who isn't on my buddy list. I also don't actively list my AIM unless someone asks for it.

 

[BatmanNate]

I wonder if I'm getting it too. I'm not home yet but Trillian is probably taking care of it, so I wave my bare digital ass proudly at the perps.

I started getting weird ims and warnings from people after someone here posted a screen name and said to talk to him on aim. I ended up chatting with the guy and he ended up going psycho and warning and getting on all these new screen names to warn me.

It's been happening to me too lately, I dunno why. I don't have my AIM name listed here....

 

[AvesPKS]

Hmm, not necessarily (about it being from this forum). I have begun just recently being bombarded with these IM's...

 

[amdskip]

wtf, got em here too

As soon as I replied it did it again. Blocked now but that sucks.

 

[Shawn]

Anyway to find the IP of the spammers and do a DoS attack on them or something? I'm really getting pissed off by this....

 

[nativesunshine]

speaking of im's....who wants to im me? hehe..for a limited time only..i'll be online under the name in my profile.

i'm bored. haha.

 

[ThisIsMatt]

yeah, same thing happened to me. I had an interesting conversation with the guy. It was strange, involved bannas, and the moon. Odd really.

 

[ThisIsMatt]

Well it's definitely someone from AT. i love yougot.

I just got pwned by that bot or whatever.. had 50 windows of chat invitations and about another 30 of IMs [the asking if I wanted to talk windows]. Turned on the "Block users not on Buddy List" thing and they stopped.. then proceeded to delete the windows. I'm suprised my iBook didn't crash.

 

[Daishiki]

yea, i get them too. usually when my away msg goes up so i can't bother them. anyways, if you check the ip it goes to aol servers, not directly to the immer.

unless you manage to get a file transfer going on with the person...
