On an old and soon to be spam-ridden account, I received a spam from a Twitter “user” (advertiser). They invited me by email using a standard Twitter feature.
Within that email, Twitter provides an opt-out link. But that opt-out link doesn’t actually work.
I get:
Unknown Code
Whoa, something weird is going on here. Maybe the email got garbled or something.
I’m already offended at getting this spam. I’m furious that I can’t stop this mis-feature.
So I went looking for a way to report this bug. I can’t find one. I looked through this chain of stuff:
- FIXME – research a replacement link: twitter.com/about#contact
- https://web.archive.org/web/20100317035855/http://help.twitter.com/portal
- https://web.archive.org/web/20090701092212/http://help.twitter.com/forums
The best I might be able to do is to .. uh.. sign up to tell them that I don’t want to sign up. Hrmph.
