If this happens to me my career is over. Do you realize that? There was a software that did this before, it attached itself to everyones contacts in the client side email list and thus spread everywere. It was AOL's first virus. I am absolutely OUTRAGED at the moment. BOXBE could very well be THE reason I do not sell this specific work. -Ben Racicot I am trying very hard to gain representation for scriptwriting.

You can't get rid of this thing once you have signed up. They won't let me log in, and I never get my password when I request it from them.

I was searching/looking for help as to how to get this “PROBLEM” to stop. I got an email from a trusted contact Jan 14, 2010 (it looked like it was from them). I responded, clicked to join, so I could get emails from this trusted contact and then…the rest is history! I did not select any of my contacts from my address book (apparently I should be thankful for that) but any one that sends me an email now gets this email that LOOKS like it’s a personal email from me. They think that they their email did not get through to me & they become frustrated that they continue to get these emails every time they email me. This is my business email (I own the company) and these are my suppliers and customers emailing me. This has become a negative issue, is starting to greatly up-set those sending me emails and is now costing me business: money! It seems from to two postings you put up, on two different sites, that this is not your intent. If that is truly the case then I look to receive an email back from you soon on how to remove this. Since last Thursday I have sent more than 70 emails to the following email address looking for help with no reply: 'support@boxbe.com'; 'info@boxbe.com'; 'bizdev@boxbe.com'; 'press@boxbe.com'; 'service@boxbe.com'; 'support@boxbe.com'; 'bizdev@boxbe.com’ I have Disabled all options on the account, I changed passwords & I closed the account. Still, this issue continues! I called the phone number listed as your company number in San Francisco, CA 415-692-0155 and it appears to not exist. I’m coping both our IT admin as well as our corp attorney so they can stay current as to my situation with you and your company. I look forward to hearing from you shortly.

Randy,
I got your email from one of many blogs complaining about Boxbe. I was searching/looking for help as to how to get this “PROBLEM” to stop.

I did not sign-up for it and I immediately unsubscribed from it, hopefully that took care of it. I also Googled Boxbe and found the negative remarks about this piece of junk company. If I have to, I'll pay for GMail. Boxbe's tactics remind me of the same tactics Classmates used and spammed everyone. Shame on both of them!

There is no link to remove your email address from their website. even the opt-out link posted above return a well-formed email error, even for the example they gave. When they say you won't get spam when you sign up with them, they mean their spam offers.
