Spam Mail!

All of a sudden out of nowhere I'm getting loads and loads of Spam Mail!! I never used to get too much, but over the past couple days I've been flooded with it. I think I had about 300 spam e-mails today! Over the past week or so I've been shopping around online for car insurance, cable providers, and internet providers. Some of them required information to get a price quote, or even just to see if they came out to my area. So now because I was checking these types of sites online, suddenly I'm getting spam!! Has that ever happened to you?

This happens to me everytime that I go browsing for things and it is so annoying! They usually stop after a week or two but it just takes up so much time having to keep deleting them and trying to get rid of them.

Luckily my e-mail address is changing so I won't have to deal with it anymore. I'm not keeping the same internet provider when I move, so I've had to switch my e-mail.

I hate the way these spammers pick up on your information. What I find even more annoying is that spammers sometimes just try email addresses at random in the hope that some sill strike 'lucky' and be real ones. This is the only explanation for the spam which my son gets, as he doesn't use his email address anywhere on the net.

I have gotten 75 since I emptied my spam box at noon today. I have been getting them for awhile now, so I can't really say what started all of it. I did do an auto insurance thing awhile back.

Yes i think that is the reason why you are getting spam mails i suggest you to use a different mail for all online shopping purpose and use one for your personal needs. You can also mark all the spam mail into a apam folder so that all the spam mails will be considered by you mail provider and they will ban them.
