S3D text triggers

Some of you may have noticed a remarkable upswing in spam
coming into your sites promoting fraudulent credit card
schemes.

Tonight I got a mail bounce back which said:

>>> DATA
<<< 550 Banned text appeared in body text: 'accept credit cards'

So it appears that some sites are now scanning the text in 
the body of messages and rejecting based on finding this.

Thus if you are posting on sell-3d, it's best not to mention
credit cards in this way.

Thanks!
