Agreed. With wide-open exit policies too. Yuck. Thanks.

Usually these sorts of things disappear within a day or so of appearing. I
guess because the operator realizes this isn't going to actually do
whatever he/she thought it would.

Once it does disappear, we might be wise to put the addresses on a
watchlist to see if they reappear later.
