    Sad thing is, his clever innovation is getting abused by nearly everyone, even by some of the email providers themselves.

    Bank Statements emailed straight to your computer; Direct Deposit statements emailed to your computer.

    I agree, when is the birth of spam. Ever notice when you order something from Amazon you get SPAM from Amazon even through you asked Amazon NOT to send you any adds for things on sale.:mad:

    Hey, this is 2014! Email spams and attachment infections are the trends lol. That is why I tend to avoid freeware that requires me to register an email address. Even if it's a throwaway email address it's not worth it.

    Phishing emails asks you at click and do some thing like login and update your profile You never click on anything . Emails of familiar websites can be spoofed could be logging in to a fake website and get a nasty auto download.
