It's supposedly free, but after you receive an invite from a friend (which he didn't send!) and after clicking some registration buttons, you have to pay about 15$ for this "free" service. They also make the email addresses available to “marketing partners†which is overlooked easily - but of course they are kind enough to let you opt out this, should you be smart enough to find that info...:-(
Tagged.com is also known for hijacking your mail addressbook and spamming each and everybody in it with invites for their social networking site. A site working with such fraudulent schemes isn't worth to be called social! http://www.istokpavlovic.com/blog/spammi...taggedcom/ http://www.intuitive.com/blog/is_tagged_..._what.html http://livlab.com/thinkia/2007/04/tagged...l-network/ - this site describes what may happen if you try to unsubscribe from tagged.com. http://tldp.org/LDP/LGNET/144/misc/lg/di...d_you.html - a Linux user describes his experiences with tagged.com and how he set up a fake account to research their tactics. Included is the link to a Wiki article... Very useful to avoid future problems with suspicious looking sites! Their whois info: http://www.consumerfraudreporting.org/reporting.php - this site contains links for various countries and organisations which may be able to help you. Ads |
