Everyone:
When you post a Classified ad, please don't put your email address in the description of the ad. People will still be able to reply to your classified. theBubbler will forward the response to the email address you enter in the email field.
The reason that we don't want you to put your email address in your ad is that we can stop these scammers from using contact feature in the classifieds, but we can't stop them from reading the address from your ad and replying with their own mail client.
