		<description>Hi Amanda, thanks for dropping by.

Well there&#039;s a few points to cover there.  First of as I&#039;m sure you already noticed, I&#039;m Scott not Gary. ;)

I&#039;ll humour this series of comments for a little while, but you&#039;ll have to excuse me if I don&#039;t really take an email / comment posted from a Hotmail address entirely seriously right away - no offence intended you could be anyone. :p

With regards the email campaign, it would take quite a strech of the imagination to suggest that I would in some way benefit from promoting the new site launch.  The email was from a PR agency - i.e. looking for free publicity.  Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but there&#039;s no benefit for anyone but your client there.  Of course the site may be ultimately useful for people looking for jobs - that&#039;s not in question at all.  This is just commentary on the marketing campaigns carried out over the past few months.

But the point is that I (or anyone else for that matter), shouldn&#039;t need to opt out from email marketing campaigns we didn&#039;t sign up to.  

Happy to discuss in private, but not via hotmail address or mobile number.

Cheers

		<description>Hi Gary, 

I&#039;ve sent you an email asking for your phone number. I&#039;m responsible for the accidental SEO forum spamming which took place in January, on behalf of my client, Jobsite. Happy to talk to you about how this went wrong and the learnings that we have as a result.

Neither Jobsite nor their PR agency have done any wrong. If your career site doesn&#039;t wish to benefit from their efforts and investment in promoting career and interview advice and services, then just let them know, and Jobsite will cease contacting you! 

I&#039;ve sent you my phone number so just give me a call!
