I have a regular email address that I use everyday for regular emails from subscriptions and from casual friends. I have another that I don’t use that much and was planning on closing it. I get a lot of Nigerian 419 and lottery scam emails on a weekly basis and I report them to abuse@yahoo.com soon afterwards.
On a lark, I decided to check to see if the Yahoo accounts that the scammers were using had been shutdown, so I put all the email addresses into my other account (the one I don’t use) and sent a little note to all of the scammers who had contacted me.
To my surprise, most of the email addresses were still active, including the Yahoo accounts. I know this because the emails didn’t bounce-back to me. Yahoo seems to have the largest number of active scammer addresses and I had reported all of them. I reported them a second time and, still, most of them are still active! If Yahoo is serious about stopping scammers from using Yahoo Mail, why don’t they shut them down?
I’ve reported every single scam email sent to me. Blocking them from my Inbox doesn’t shutdown the address being used to run the scam.
I receive a lot of junk emails in my inbox, that I wish to stop receiving . Also, for example last year I bought some tickets from stubhub and to this day I still get emails such as shows coming up, and every time I register from something I uncheck or check that little box saying that I do not wish to receive emails from offers, etc.
A lot of spam is being sent to my email and I hate it. I have to keep deleting it. please help
I believe my email address is being used
so send spam to other people. I recieve
a lot of junk mail about solving “male
problems” or enhancing sx. I just
ignore these b/c they straight to my
bulk folder so i don’t have to deal with
them. When I checked my email right now
I had a message delivery failure, which
is strange b/c its been a while since i
sent an email. I checked it out and it
was simillar to the spam ads that i have
been getting. Is there a way to stop my
email address from being used or fix
this without getting a new email address? or just any way to email yahoo so i can talk directly with them?
I use junk email filters which seperates most of the junk from my inbox, but I still get a lot of junk email. Is there anyway to stop it coming to my email address?
How to stop spam from any_email@exact_spamdomain.com?
I receive a lot of emails from site with the same domain name. Any ideas how to stop that spam if I have Yahoo email? What settings should I change in my Yahoo! mailbox?
