Hi there,
Anyone else getting bombarded by messages from Columbus VM Proz (always the same message)? I did block the IP address but that doesn't seem to work. What can I do?
Thanks for your help.

The same outsourcer is sending multiple messages again even though I blocked his IP address. Can someone help me, please? Thanks!

Hi ibz Jun 2, 2021

Same problem here. I´ve been getting loads of them over the last few days. Completely irrelevant, languages I don´t even speak and rates offered an absolut insult...When I tried to reply to tell them to stop that massive nuisance I´m getting a "message not deliverable" mail.
