From this server we are receiving waves of spam like this ***** . What are your policies about that? It's not your problem? Your server is being used for spam attack, and you... what?

Hi hotdoge3, it seems that there was a mistake with the reputation/rating of our service. We fixed any potential reasons for the problem, please see the details here https://www.mywot.com/en/forum/47520-sur-ly Could you please review your rating and remove your comment as it seems to be irrelevant now? thank you in advance
Like any other short url service, sur.ly is involved in spam, scam, phishing, browser exploits, malware distribution, adult content distribution.

***** claims to protect against outbound links to, for instance malware. However, ***** provides links to all kinds of very dubious programs through displaying advertisements in a window that pops up center bottom with all kinds of bogus notifications. e.g. your pc has errors, your pc is running slow, this content needs java update 13.6, your harddisk is almost full etc. The messages appear at random, and are fed by adsserving.net. The messages, notifications and "warnings" are only presented to trick the user into clicking on the link, where upon affiliated dubious software (Pups) (programs that install toolbars, and/or advertising channels (adware), and/or install trackers and/or alter search results etc. google for instance the "this content needs java update 13.6" notification) is installed. Be aware; do not click on these "warnings", notifications or other advertisements that pop randomly on the sur.ly pages.

(I have received 60 SPAMs between August 24, 2014 and August 28, 2014)! Rated with mass rating here. It's either: A shop or other that uses SPAM to his promotion (adverts), even famous brands, deemed reliable, do the same now, I've seen public services in any country to use SPAM for their advancement (tourism, trade fairs, shows, festivals, etc..), there is only a small step for hospitals, police, governments, schools, ... will go do the same too. A disaster of modern times now affecting other means of mobile communications (smartphones, tablets, SMS, etc..). Or if it's either: An address used for SPAM, endless new addresses (even the wacky, with a letter changed, weird word, numbers, .......) are created permanently to bypass filters, updated constantly, that harassed and antispam services put to block this scourge! Apparently this is the feast of site creations including fake sites for spam, scams, to sell us (legally or illegally) their products or services, and pollute the planet with electric resources wasted, thank you also HOSTS complaisant with the SPAM and the world of profit! One day, the number of Internet domains used for SPAM extensively exceed the number of useful internet domains, like the number of SPAM received which represents 90% of e-mails that are received in the world! Proof here: ***** /!\ A VERY IMPORTANT TIP /!\ : DON'T CLICK ON ANYLINK IN A SPAM, INCLUDING THE UNSUSCRIBE LINK, BECAUSE YOU WOULD CONFIRM THAT YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS IS VALID, TO BETTER SPAMMING YOU, SPAMS are very contagious with illegal resale data, unofficially legal in corrupt countries! REPORT DIRECTLY SUSPECTS E-MAIL, SMS OR CALL TO SERVICES PROVIDED FOR THIS PURPOSE THAT THE AUTHORITIES AND ASSOCIATIONS HAVE PUT IN PLACE TO COMBAT THIS PANDEMIC! ------------------------------------------------------------------ Il s'agit soit: Un commerce ou autres qui se sert du SPAM pour faire sa promotion, même des célèbres marques, réputé fiable en font de même maintenant, j'ai vu des services publics de n'importe quel pays utiliser du SPAM pour leur promotion (tourisme, expositions, salons, festivités, etc.), il n'y a qu'un pas à franchir pour que les hôpitaux, la police, les gouvernements, les écoles, ... , s'y mettent aussi. Un véritable désastre des temps modernes qui touche maintenant d'autres moyens de communications mobiles (smartphones, tablettes, SMS, etc.). Ou il s'agit sinon soit: Une des adresses servant pour le SPAM, une infinité de nouvelles adresses (même les plus farfelus, avec une lettre qui change, un mot bizarre, des chiffres, .......) sont créé en permanence pour contourner les filtres, mis a jour en permanence, que les harcelés et les services antispams mettent pour bloquer ce fléau! Apparemment c'est la fête des créations de site y compris des faux sites pour du spam, des arnaques, de la publicité pour nous vendre (légalement ou illégalement) leur produits, ou services, et polluer la planète avec des ressources électriques gaspillés, merci aussi les hébergeurs complaisants envers le SPAM et le monde du profit! Un jour, le nombres de domaines internet servant à du SPAM dépassera largement le nombre de domaines internet utiles, à l'instar du nombre de SPAM reçus qui représente 90% des e-mails qui sont reçus dans le monde! La preuve ici: ***** /!\ UN CONSEIL TRÈS IMPORTANT /!\ : NE CLIQUEZ JAMAIS SUR N'IMPORTE QUEL LIENS DANS UN SPAM, Y COMPRIS LE LIEN DE DÉSABONNEMENT, VOUS NE FERAIS QUE CONFIRMER QUE VOTRE ADRESSE E-MAIL EST VALIDE, POUR MIEUX VOUS SPAMMER, le SPAM est très contagieux avec la revente illégale des données, officieusement légale dans des pays corrompus! SIGNALEZ DIRECTEMENT LES E-MAILS, LES SMS OU APPELS SUSPECTS VERS DES SERVICES PRÉVUS A CET EFFET QUE LES AUTORITÉS ET ASSOCIATIONS ONT MIS EN PLACE POUR LUTTER CONTRE CETTE PANDÉMIE!

Disguised as a "helpful" plugin, ***** is in fact a parasite that makes the user experience painful by opening outbound links inside a frame. It does not profit anybody except sur.ly itself, which ends up indexing all the cached pages and making traffic with recycled content. Currently: over 2 million pages indexed by Google.

welcome . open without any problems rate it. good luck .

This appears to be a safe and good site that has no connection to spam other than offering a plug-in for blog owners who want to reduce spam.
