Spam Mail

Have you received more spam than ever before? Do you know how these people are getting your e-mail address.

Senders of spam and potentially harmful e-mail use a number of tactics to secure your e-mail address. If you have posted your e-mail address anywhere on the internet, it can be “harvested” by programs designed to scour the internet and retrieve freely available e-mail addresses.

To prevent this from happening, never post your e-mail address anywhere on the internet - including message boards and personal websites - in an altered form.

If you must post your address somewhere online, write it in a form that is understandable by humans but not by a machine, such as “yourname - at - hotmail.com”

Also, take advantage of the multiple e-mail accounts provided by most internet service providers (ISP) today, and set yourself up at least two accounts: One that you hand out only to friends and colleagues, and another that you give to anyone else - including online stores.

When you give out your e-mail address to anyone online, you simply never know whether that address may ultimately end up in the hands of mass marketers or spammers.
