I'm not certain where to start. This type of spam is very interesting because they are using Google+ to send the spam. I get hundreds of this type of spam on a daily basis, and not exactly sure how to remove it or where it is coming from or how they gained my email address.
There is options to unsubscribe from those emails, or to "Mute" them. However if you unsubscribe than they will still spam your inbox. You can't "mute" them either because the post doesn't exist. So basically there is no way of stopping the email spam.
Do you think Google will do something about this? Do you know of any tricks to remove all this Google+ spam?
The spam is not from Google groups/circles/etc. It appears to be from a bot service that is using the gmail anonymous email thingy. It's very annoying, and it won't stop coming. I go to the pages where the posts are being sent from and there's tons of people begging to them to stop sending them spam. Google really needs to do something about this, as it could potentially effect their brand. You can't unsubscribe from it or anything, no matter what you do it still comes. The only thing I can do is report the spam, and filter the message to delete. :(

Nah I don't think the spammer that is spamming me [i]hates [/i]me but they somehow managed to get my email, and many others email too. I'm not just the only one getting the spam either, a lot of people are. It's very ridiculous. :(

Oh no that would drive me insane with irritation. I hate all the emails I keep receiving, most of the things I receive are spam. So every morning it is just wafting through and removing all the spam emails to see if anything important has been sent to me.
I hope you get this resolved soon :(

I have never received any Google+ spam though. I wonder if this is not also from Google+ groups? Oh that would drive me crazy! I have joined a lot of LinkedIn groups recently and I am getting a lot of spams from these groups. I just unsubscribe from each group but I find it really annoying. I have never received any Google+ spam though. I wonder if this is not also from Google+ groups?
