    SMS based Business communications - spam??

     I just received 2 messages about an SMS communication site.  The messages came in as posts to "Community site problems and feedback".  Since they did not link back to this site I am assuming that the administrators caught and deleted the messages before they could use this site as a sales tool.  Does this type of stunt happen  often?  I really appreciate the immediate deletion.  You and/or your software are really on the ball.  Of course, I would have preferred not to get the messages at all, but I don't know how you can totally prevent such a problem.  Any way, thanks for watching for this kind of thing.

    We have not sent any spam from CorelDRAW.com. It appears that someone is doing email spoofing with the email from the admins. If you still have the email, can you send it to coreldrawcommunity [at] corel . com or coreldrawcommunity {at} gmail . com?

    Sorry for this. Looks like these postings managed to go through the spam filters in place on the site. This user has been banned and we are updating the spam filters to include the words used in that message. No need to forward the message as this has already been taken care of.
