Spam.la - Don't give
spammers your email address |
This is a simple concept, but even I was
confused for a minute. Let's say you want to register for some cool
software or something and you are pretty sure if you give them an email
address you'll start getting spam. The solution is here at this website.
Just make up a name, any will do ("your_fake_address" for example), and
throw some numbers in with it if you want. Now write it down somewhere.
Now sign up for whatever you want and use your_fake_address@spam.la as
the email address. Any email the ends with spam.la will go to the spam.la
website where you can view it easily using their filter. Just remember
this, you can't keep anyone else from seeing the email that is going
there. So make sure you don't give out any personal information that might
appear in an email to spam.la. Also be aware you'll see lots of really
nasty email at spam.la, that's why they made the website. It eats spam,
that's what it is for. Make it work for you.
