[tor-relays] Jerk spammers on tor-relays

[Keifer Bly]

I will report back with the addresses if I receive any more of them. FYI, the other gmail addresses I have received spam from are

whitegirl7709 at gmail.com

michellebaker56315 at gmail.com

scalphunter46 at googlemail.com

trackkocolline at gmail.com

elmerlamagna at gmail.com

pippaavery00 at gmail.com

So yes, to fellow peeps getting spammed, block these email addresses as well. Surprised as Gmail is usually really good at blocking spam.

That's a bit creepy, no?

It's come up before around this issue, as I recall.
