There's been a lot of discussion lately about mamasource, especially in regards to their practice of hijacking people's email address books.

They also do not provide an unsubscribe link in their daily emails, in direct violation of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, and there are some other issues with the way emails are being handled through their mail servers.

This is all very sketchy, esecially when you read their claim:

"Mamasource is a free service, but to protect our members we are an invitation-only community. We have a strict no-spam policy and your personal information will never be shared with advertisers."

There are several blogs with more information, including mine at:

http://mamasource.blogspot.com

and if you do a search with "mamasource" and either "spam" or "scam" you will uncover other sites as well.

The community may be wonderful, but the practices by the site founder, Artie Wu, are deplorable.

Please do NOT enter your email password for anyone, especially Mamasource, as you could very well end up embarrassed an angry like a lot of other women.

If you like this site, be sure and write them (you can't call, there is NO contact number) and tell them to stop these sneaky tactics.
