How do I avoid getting spammed?
Don't Be Fooled
Slide 4 of 5
Spam is a business, and the spammers keep doing it because people keep falling for scams like penny stocks or clicking on links to install key loggers. Don't be fooled by phrases such as "to be removed from this list, click here." Spammers use these types of catch phrases to entice users to respond to the emails. By clicking and performing the action you have told the spammer that your email address is valid and reaches a real person. This can actually be more valuable to the spammers because they can now sell your address to another spammer with the assurance that the email address is legitimate.
