dear email user,
this is very serious, do you like spam? well nobody really does but people will still send it to you, its like they just don't care.
there are many methods you can use to reduce the amount of spam you receive. one is to not let the spammers get ahold of your email address. one way they are able to get your email address is called address harvesting. you know when you get a forwarded email warning you about some fake virus, or testing an email tracking system, those are perfect places for email addresses to be harvested. when people don't remove all the other email addresses that are in a forwarded email, eventually a spammer will get his grubby hands on it and have 100's if not 1000's of email addresses that he can start spamming.
what can you do? stop sending stupid forwarded emails around the internet. or ffs at least cut out all the previous info about who it came to you from and who sent it to them before you.
send this to your entire address book, it just may save your inbox!
