Re: spam emails

Not much my email app on the iPad plus my bt email account sort a lot before it gets to me. So it tends to just be the occasional one from the USA attorney general saying my tax rebate is ready to be claimed if I could just send them the money to free it up and post it to me

Re: spam emails

I tend to get Lindekin requests. I really don't see the point of accepting as I am retired.

Re: spam emails

this really really annoys me. Everything you do online these days requires signing up so they can send hoards of emails and texts. I use companies like Screwfix regularly but I still get emails from them. Tradepoint text me every Sunday to tell me I can get cheap van insurance - I don't have a van.
If I look up something on ebay, I get emails about similar items even though I have repeatedly asked to stop them.

Do companies really think that bombarding people with spam will make them buy stuff? It has the opposite effect for me.
