Right it is a Nigerian scam variation and since he used a Yahoo email address Yahoo will delete the account, I missed that it was a Yahoo account the first time I  read you message. It will take him about 30 seconds to create a new email account and send more scam mail. Yahoo won't do anything if the email isn't from a Yahoo account, even if ...

I found that I can delete the visits, so I deleted the two that I got, but if spammers have found that they can access WayMarking then we can expect a lot more of this from what I have seen on other sites, so the admins need to put security in place.

I also got an email to my yahoo account from him. I didn't report it as all that will happen is that Yahoo will send you a confirmation email and then another email saying that it is a spammer and they can't do anything. It is apparent that he is using a software that created a WayMarking account and has posted the visits. The admins of ...

Today I got the first visit to one of my WayMarks. At first I was all excited. Unfortunately it was a spammer. The two WayMarks that got spammed are these.  If  you look at the visit it is encrypted. http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM4V13http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM4V0VI have posted the text of the spam mail below.

The memorial is for Amundsen's Northwest Passage exploration and marks the place where his ship the Gjol was put as an attraction for many years. It includes a bronze relief of Anundsen, and a plaque, on a pillar, commerating that voyage. I'm fine submitting to the Antarctic category if you want to accept it there. I'm sure people know Amundsen for

It think the idea of a pending status, where more experienced people choose and submit to the final category, is a good move. That way the work that someone does with a submission isn't wasted and they get some help from the system. I still think that it would be a shame to reject submissions just because they don't fit a strick sub-category or ...

I understand the reason for the decline, and with the system as it is, the reason was valid, so that isn't the issue. I never thought that it was personal. As I stated in my first post, I knew that my bench didn't quite fit in the ''sit-by-me'' category. What I am getting at is that the categories are so specific that sites that are worth listing ...

It is a big turn off for me to browse and see McDonalds and Taco Bell and Starbucks. They have no significance, historical or otherwise, and I don't need help finding them. They just clutter the site and detract from the value of the site. Commercial, franchise type establishments should be removed. The site should be for things that have some ...

''Maritime Monuments & Memorials'' sounds like what I am looking for as a category for my new submission which is a monument to Roald Amundsen in San Francisco.

It has a 3d relief portrait, not a statue like bust. It is a historic figure. The topic is the site in San Francisco where the ship of the Arctic explorer Roald Amundsen rested for many years after his historic voyage. The stone monument, with plaque and bronze relief portrait was placed by a historical society. It is similar to the monuments that ...

I have searched and not found a category that seems right so I figured I'd ask here instead of waiting for decline and resubmitting.The object is a tall stone pillar, but not an obelisk, it has a bronze relief bust, but it is not a statue, it has a historical marker plaque and it is in California, but it is not an official California Historical ...

I like that idea. If someone makes the bench category I have some more benches to post. I'm just a basic member and can't make categories.

Well Bruce thanks for trying to help. If you had read my message you would understand that I spent a lot of time reading the full descriptions of the categories and looking at the other waymarks in the various categories, not that I really wanted to spend my morning doing that. I did use the search feature and I looked at Mosaic. My object is a ...
