Spam emal: How many do you get a day?
 
i read the other day somewhere that the 'average ' user gets three(3) spam emails a day.

It's been a long time since I've been an 'average' user but that number seems awfully low.

My main email addy is constantly fully of spam every time i download.

I do have to admit that i don't user any filters etc. I sometimes go through the spam to see what the latest techniques are to fool surfers into opening/clicking them. Some methods are really quite unique.

In any case I get over a 100 a day. How many do u guys get a day?

Why 05-07-2003 10:34 AM

all depends on how often i seed my lists :)

Corleone 05-07-2003 10:35 AM

20-30 per day...

but i don't care .. i'm using a spam email account ;) where i'm signing up with on some sites/programms..

never read them ;)

on my normal accounts 3/day

Stallion 05-07-2003 10:35 AM

I would say I get about 500-700 a day through all my emails. Even though I didn't optin to any of them. My delete key gets a work out :-)

SIB 05-07-2003 10:37 AM

about 50 a day, and I also never opted in, note I get the most on my webmaster@ accounts

Pappa 05-07-2003 10:38 AM

I had a hotmail acount a few years back that got bombed with spam, but I just stoped using it. Now I get about 3 spam emails a week at most. And I don't use any filters either

In my main email acount I've recived one so far :)

yeah same here, as well as dictionary type emails. like [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] and so on. I just forward all those emails into the trash anyways.. lol

bristol 05-07-2003 10:40 AM

i usually get an email about some shitty long distance phone code once every 5 days.. apart from that i dont get any spam

Why 05-07-2003 10:41 AM

i like how people always say they didnt opt into anything. YEA RIGHT!, im sure you have NEVER once put your email address into a form? do you read the TOS at most places you sign up for. its pretty standard that you agree to be marketted to. and lists are whored around like you wouldnt believe. so YES you did sign up for most of it. quit whining or get off the internet. or learn the location of the 'del' key. :)

KRL 05-07-2003 10:48 AM

About 50 per minute if I don't have controls on. Only because we have a huge amount of domains.

wooly1974 05-07-2003 10:49 AM

300-500 daily to my main yahoo account.
i just delete em but sometimes i do find
something that sparks my interest.

andi_germany 05-07-2003 10:52 AM

about 9 of 10 of my email is spam. Over 100 daily

Yo Adrian 05-07-2003 10:54 AM

I get around 25-30 to my main account and probably 200 or so to my open accounts.

I really don't mind them much, only takes a second or two to add them to my filters and delete the rest.

What I hate are spammers that use live script or whatever to auto launch a url once their email is selected.

Phoenix 05-07-2003 11:05 AM

i get many..i sign up for it though, i like to keep track of who is mailing what

what looks like it will work etc

and if someone looks like they got a good setup, i will contact them and see if they can mail for me:winkwink:

EscortBiz 05-07-2003 11:06 AM

RyanL 05-07-2003 11:08 AM

PornoDoggy 05-07-2003 11:21 AM

Anywhere from 50 to 100 ...

Cindyff 05-07-2003 11:26 AM

We used to get more than 5000 a week for all the domains we have, but we now filter through Spamcop.net for just $30 a year and its cut them down to about 10 a week. It also removes all virus infected mail !!

someone know the "BigBoss"?

i recieve 5-10mails from "BigBoss" a day :(

SykkBoy 05-07-2003 01:56 PM

I get around 100 a day or so, but I'ev opted into a lot, ordered online a lot and I'm a spam clicker if the offer works for me...at least with spam, it comes right to me and I don't have to bother going to look for it...

my only cvomplaint is with companies who don't check their lists for dupes...I understand I'm going to get a few dupes from forwarding most of my email to one central account, but when it'[s the same email address getting mailed multiple times in one day from the same sender, I have to wonder about these amateur spammers....

adamneve 05-07-2003 02:06 PM

like 40 a day and in the last month it's the digital camera
:mad

Kat - Fast 05-07-2003 02:12 PM

about 80 - 100 a day. I use mailwasher from firetrust and it bounces most of the crap :thumbsup

AmeliaG 05-07-2003 02:28 PM

I get 600-900 a day, but I filter a lot of it by knocking out words like mortgage and christian. Nothing I can do about receiving the porn spam but delete it. Can't miss important biz :) I tried filtering the word penis, but I was missing model submissions. I don't know why so many spammers think I need a to grow my cock. It is already too big. :eek2

Spam only makes me really irate when it comes to an email that I only give out on a personal basis or when it is insulting religious junk or recently when some spams have looked to surfers like they might have something to do with my sites.

DarkBob 05-07-2003 02:42 PM

between 100 and 150 per day

Niki 05-07-2003 03:52 PM

about 300 daily ... and still the same boring crap ... I'm not a big spam hater, but why those idiots sending the same emails every fucking day, sometime every 12 hours to the same address???

Cassie 05-07-2003 05:17 PM

about 25 pieces per hour on average (some days its more) :(

RAM 05-07-2003 05:18 PM

to many

BluMedia 05-07-2003 05:29 PM

At least 50 junk mail of enlarging my penis, porn sites, and all that crap. I did a test and did not have any email addresses on any sites we just had a form and our junk mail went down like 70%.

Mark

Gutterboy 05-07-2003 05:30 PM

Around 30

archer 05-07-2003 09:08 PM
