Masked Email Addresses

Connectingdeals.com automatically masks the email addresses of buyers and sellers when replying through the site. This helps to protect you from receiving unwanted spam or fraudulent replies.

Masked emails won’t interfere with your ability to communicate on Connectingdeals.com. You will still receive email replies and you can still reply to members from your own mailbox in the normal way. 

How It Works

When someone replies to an ad, instead of displaying that person’s actual email address, we simply replace it with a unique Connectingdeals.com email address. We’ll also include a brief explanation so that the recipient understands why the email address has been masked.

Here is an example of what our masked emails look like:

How Do I Reply?

If you receive an email from Connectingdeals.com with a masked email address, you can reply to the person from your Messages section or personal email mailbox as you normally would. This will show the “mail to” address as the masked Connectingdeals.com email address. This email address is unique and will enable us to route your reply directly back to the person who emailed you.

Masking Exceptions

When you reply to ads in the Jobs category or ads posted by business users, your email address will not be masked. You will also be able to see the business’ email. This is to allow businesses to properly qualify their clientele. Unmasked emails will only be sent to business users who have registered with our sales teams, and ads posted in Jobs. All other ads will have masked emails.

Note:

• For your safety, we recommend you only use the masked email address when replying to emails unless the ad has been posted by a business. If someone asks you to reply to a personal email address instead of their masked Connectingdeals.com email, be cautious. 
• Forwarding and cc’ing other email addresses in your replies may cause interruptions in service.
