I don't get any Spam from them. It's a great tool for business networking. Been able to get in touch with a number of former colleagues.

No spam. And unlike classmates.com, no charge. No worries, sign up.

I have never (even before I signed up) gotten spam from people I don't know. If nothing else you should be able to sign up and then block all invites.
