The latest version of skype is even better with lesser spam allowance.

I use both Skype and Gmail. I think Gmail allows more Spam than Skype.

Do you trust Outlook to stop your email spam? Than why do you ask Skype to do that.
You better use an external anti spam tool for Skype.
A good example is SX for Skype (I’m sure there are others)

I’ve been avoiding Skype for that very reason. I hate the SPAM.

Skype spam also irritates me immeasurably. Note that whenever you receive a spam message it is very important to block this person and to report the spam. I have made a tutorial video which explains how to do that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sSg022oZpk

yes it is always advisable to take and add contact of people near and dear to you, this will surely minimize the chances of spam coming to your way, also never download any file before scanning it, this is filter the file if it is infected from any malware.

I do love skype too. And I really hate it when someone suddenly sends a rude message or something even if my settings are already made private. I wish people behind skype will make security more tougher. I think Skype is an effective communication tool for business so hopefully it doesn’t get perpetrated by scammers.

Thanks for reminding us to change our settings.

Thanks for the post and the reminder to set my privacy a bit tighter. I too have noticed a lot of Skype spam lately. In fact, yesterday I had 5 of them in about an hour. And like you, Skype is a business tool for me. Not a pleasure tool.

Thanks again!
