Of course, this is spam and even though I like this site I will be able to use and will be telling everyone to stay away. It's too bad they spam...!

    My 2 cents:

    The site would have no reason to advertise, as it comes up easily on any google search involving any company having complaints.

    The name and address are clearly bogus, particularly the zip.  

    Gmail accounts can be set up by anyone, and are commonly used by scams as throw-away email contacts.

    The IP address comes up "Latvia":
    http://46.109.19.152.ipaddress.com/

    That may hint at former eastern block or Russian connections.  Mostly, they are into card number theft, and fraudulent CC or debit card charges.  They have been known to launch DOS attacks against complaint sites.

    Looks like a test of spoofed email, possibly by someone with a grudge against the site, to see what response they get.  The goal, if they roll out a larger spam campaign, might be to bombard the site admins with complaints of spam.

    Periodically, there have been attempts to either control complaint threads using shill posts, or to post obscene trash postings.  Sometimes, those are preceded by "test" posts, probably to see if anyone will respond or remove them.

    (No, even though I post on it, I am not connected with this site.)

    Thank you for reporting this issue. I've checked Google and found several SPAM messages similar to the one you reported.

    We are puzzled who and why could do that. Definitely we do not need that. It will probably have a negative effect on our site, as many of those posts have been sent to guest books, unmonitored blogs and other pages with negative SEO value.

    Could these spam sites be connected to card member services,That wont stop calling consumers.It is being reported here then people are reporting it to the FTC, so if they can put negativity to complaint wire so people might stop coming to this site? I myself love this site, it is very informative and i learn what to look for in scams! Long live this website.
