it is ABSOLUTELY from attitude. my riu email and my attitude email are at completely different domains. furthermore i have recieved fake emails from "riu" with bogus links on the WRONG FUCKING EMAIL. i haven't even fucking ordered from attitude in over a year. here is the email i recieved from "rollitup" last month at the WRONG FUCKING EMAIL:

APRIL NEWSLETTER
ALWAYS WITH ROLLITUP
Hello dear Rollitup-ers! Now's another month for us together and we are so glad that you stayed with us here in Rollitup. You may have heard and watched the events that happened in the recent month like the introduction of iPad 2, eruption of the Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii, earthquake here and there, and the devastating tsunami in Japan. Those events may have caused you to feel down and stressed but as long as your Rollitup folks are still here, we won't allow letting you feel that way ever. Rollitup's success is also because of you, and we are so overwhelmed of the still growing number of Rollitup-ers. If you have noticed, our forum pages have been filled with threads recently with members inquiring about Marijuana things while other members do their best to provide answers to those inquiries. We assure you dear members, here in Rollitup, you'll always find answers to your questions and we'll never stop giving you only the best.
For this month in Rollitup, enjoy completely free seeds when you spend more than 15 on seeds (any brand, any promo) Hurry up thought his only is available until APRIL 4th. Sorry for the short notice on this promo.
1 x Fem Super Sour OG seed
1 x Fem Grapefruit Krush seed
1 x Fem Emerald Jack seed
THE GROW JOURNALS
Wow! Our Journals section is oozing with marijuana grow experiences, questions, comments, and splendid pictures of the Rollitup-ers' marijuana plants. It's good to know that many of you didn't hesitate to share their experiences on marijuana to every marijuana patients and growers around the world. Also, for those of you who constantly post their comments on the forum threads and journal entries, you're not just helping other members but you are showing what a true Rollitup-er is: helpful and knowledgeable.

CLEVER, CREATIVE, FREE SPIRITED PEOPLE
The heading above is meant for you; yes, for you dear Rollitup-er. We just happened to see [bogus link] on our forum pages and we're just so glad with what one of our members wrote on the Do It Yourself section. If some people think that Rollitup is just a site where visitors just come and go without leaving any mark behind, they're wrong. The Rollitup-ers are indeed clever and free-spirited for you're not afraid to voice out your thoughts and opinions.
Remember that you are always welcome to share everything in Rollitup.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Dear Rollitup-ers, this is where our newsletters always end but we won't get tired of including it in here and talking about our never-ending appreciation of all your efforts as Rollitup members. Thank you for another month of being with us; we are hoping and are positive that you'll still spend the next with us. All your efforts in helping Rollitup deliver all kinds of marijuana information to people are greatly appreciated. Those things that you've shared had helped us reach out to more people, and for more people to join the growing number of our members. Rollitup's success is because of you.
I would like to take a chance to welcome 2 new moderators to our forum (Ella & Mary), they are good friends of mine and I figured the staff could use some more estrogen around the forum J. Take it easy on them.
Now, another month comes and we are looking forward to having a fruitful marijuana month with you. We will work harder to make your Rollituperience more enjoyable and unforgettable..


Rollitup, Suite #306, 234, 5149 Country Hills Blvd N.W, Calgary, Alberta T3A 5K8, CANADA

just so we are clear i know attitude is the source because i've never used my attitude email for ANYTHING except ordering seeds, and now i'm getting bullshit seed spam and fake RIU letters. i haven't seen threads like this on other grow forums. it seems for now that only riu members have been targeted.

i hate to double post in 2 threads but the other thread is a billion pages long, and i happen to think this is important. i really do hope admin steps up to clear this up because it keeps getting weirder and weirder.

so apparently aweber is the site that handles our newsletters ever since the big breach of sept. '10. they are supposed to be so secure. (you might remember the thread from admin here Asked to Re-confirm)
so i want to know why when i view the full header of the "rollitup" newsletter that went to the WRONG EMAIL ADDRESS (my attitude only address), it mentions rollitup@aweber as the originating address. they should NOT have that fucking email! rollitup is somehow mixed up in this, whether they like it or not.

FURTHERMORE in the support section there are threads upon threads about new members being unable to register, claiming that the name "rollitup" is not available (even though that's not the name they picked) and the screen shots people are posting are powered by (you guessed it) aweber. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?
they keep getting generic responses from the mods in that section.

It's really simple. Run like hell. Far, far away from RIU. Too much hinki shit going on and too little explanation. Anything anyone has already uploaded or posted here is free domain now, as stated in the RIU terms of use, and as evidenced by the sale of your personal info to advertisers (attitude) via aweber marketing. Seriously, view the source code on the registration page. Your email and password for this forum are sent directly to a 3rd party marketing software through the same input fields as your RIU registration. Everyone should delete what info you can, and get off this site asap.

Why do we need another thread on a subject that already has multiple pages of posts? Is two really better than one? Hell, you even reference the original in your post, so what the hell is this thread for? to discuss the other thread? :roll: lol

He is trying to save Attitudes reputation in spreading the rumor that "Attitude got hacked".

Which if course, is a rumor. Attitude sold our information plain and simple.

Is this shit for real? I just ordered seeds about a week ago, I'm a bit paranoid now....

It is for real.... Attitude claims that just email addresses were hacked, but those that have received said email indicate their real first name and their state is listed.... This is the second time the Tude has been hacked and I'll no longer do business with them.

Have you tried to read that thread? People are acting as if it was a random thread in Toke&Talk with their posts in it.

So what should i expect to happen?
Nothing. This is a common advertising practice that we all have to live with. The only thing we can do to fight against these type of practices is talk with our money. In this case, stop doing business with Attitude seed bank.

Worse case scenario would be if you are already being investigated (with your knowledge or not) and they can add this to the evidence against you to prove you are growing.
