    Default Constant spam from SRID Games - No way to unsubscribe?

    I'm not sure what I clicked to deserve spam from SRID games but I must get a dozen a day in my email. Any idea how to unsubscribe or the website to tell them to quit?

    Im sick of this too. The company that makes call recorder app keeps sending me junk mail. When you click on unsubscribe it takes you to a screen with two fields. Email and pin. I check which email address they have and enter it, my regular one. I check my pin and enter it. Every single time when i press enter it says "sorry, technical problem, you cannot be unsubscribed at this time. Please come back later". Well i came back later and it always tells me that.

    In universal search, type "application management", and go to the search result under options. Then click on each offender app, followed by edit permissions, and set Connections>Internet and >WiFi to Deny.

    Of course, if your app requires the internet to work, setting these permissions to deny will break it.

    Performed the app check in App Mngt and I have no apps or games from SRID games. What a PITA.
    I just recalled that on my previous Torch I had a Blacklist app I paid for. I'll have to figure out how to reinstall that and then I'll use the Blacklist for that sender.
    Thanks!

    Changing permissions doesnt stop emails. Im not exactly sure what you were trying to do here

    You can blacklist the email through your email settings.

    Yeah, set a filter if you can't unsubscribe. What a pain, sorry

    Yeah, I guess in this particular case it may not be that helpful, now that the dev already has the user's email address(es). But it does help if you set unnecessary permissions to deny immediately post-installation, before running the app for the first time. If the app can't transmit your information (email addresses, for example), the spammer won't have any addresses to spam.

    you should be able to blacklist them through your email provider.

    I'd recommend complaining to RIM, they may delist SRID games.
