I only use this email addy on this site and I have been getting heaps of virus, spam, phishing emails.
The site has been hacked a few times but Theymos swears the hacker could not of gotten the email list, even though they had access to the backend for like 6 months........... Interesting ay.

How come they got your e-mail?

The email addresses must of got leaked if this is the only place you use the email and are getting Bitcoin spam and virus emails.
That's sad, I thought there weren't issues like this on this forum.

There've been leaks before. Remember some 3/4 year ago or so, there was a major break-in and many addresses or data got stolen. Theymos had to shut the forum down for a couple of days. Spooky times!
