I have multiple email accounts. One I use for friends to contact me, one I use for when I purchase stuff online. The more websites you enter your email address, the more likely you are to get spam. That's why I keep "online ordering" sites on a separate email account.



You can create spam filters in your email accounts. Also, when you get spam, click on the "spam" or "junk" button to recognize that sender as spam. The buttons are different depending upon which email you use (gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc).



Don't always believe the "unsubscribe" links at the bottom of spam. Sometimes they're used to check if an email address is valid. If you click the link, the computer sending the email will know that you looked at the email and possibly send you more. Usually spam is from mortgage/sex/porn/male enhancement sites. Don't trust their unsubscribe links! You're only telling them that their email got through to you!

1. Make sure you delete the emails, don't just leave them in your spam folder.

2. If it's the same email coming back again and again see if your email can block the sender.



P.S. sorry this has nothing to do with the question but OMG!!! I'm so glad your a Taylor Swift fan!!!! Isn't she the BEST???

usually a spam email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom

follow the link and it should lead you to a page that says allow so and so days to stop emails

or enter your email to stop reciving just take a bit of time to unsubscribe and the junk mail should stop

worked for me

You would have to unsubscribe the e-mail at the bottom, even though you never subscribed to the spam in the first place, then they will stop sending you spam!

block it with firewall, or try to search the email for any small print that say you can block it.
