Ok, so I am being frequently bombarded by IM spam from certain.... disreputable... websites. I am sick of it. I kept reporting their spam bots hoping that these guys would get the idea. Instead they are stepping it up.
I blasted one of their live chatters tonight when "she" started harassing me. I'd complain to their "customer support" hotline, but they seem to keep bankers hours and I doubt I'd get very far anyway.
This is the only place that my SN is posted up for anyone to find, but the account is over 10 years old at this point, and I understand that eventually they all get found and spammed. But I am unwilling to change my screen name which is older than the website that is spamming me just because they can't take a hint. I am also less than willing to adjust my privacy settings any higher because I want to let it open for TRS members to drop me a line, since it does happen from time to time.
I just want ideas on how to make (and I mean legally force) these guys to leave me alone.
