Want to fool scammers? Use your UNLIMITED Gmail addresses

- One Gmail, one address. That seems right. After all, you have one phone number, and one home address. The same should be true for your email addresses, Gmail included. As it happens, though, your Gmail account has an unlimited number of addresses you can use whenever you want, fooling everyone from Netflix to spammers alike.
There are actually a couple of methods here. The first is what allows you to turn your single gmail address into infinite addresses, through a tactic called “plus addressing” (a fitting name). In order to take advantage of plus addressing, you simply type a plus (+) after the local-part (the name before the @), then type whatever you want.

A problem is that it’s incredibly easy for companies to see right through this and build logic that strips out any obfuscating text. Basically, if any large company’s website allows you to do this, they don’t care if it happens.
Also, data brokers are already selling cleaned up versions of people’s email addresses making it even more difficult to tell when and who is selling your data.
The best option to fight this right now is to generate a unique, random email address that automatically forwards to your primary account, such as Apple’s Hide My Email or DuckDuckGo’s Email Protection.
Many websites don’t accept +
I just tried this. it didn’t accept + and the . one isn’t coming to my inbox
Finnally found a video which accurately describes +addressing. Thanks 👍😊
It's not plus addressing it is called sub addressing ....
Should i tell everyone troubling
THANK YOUUUU!!!!! LIFE+Saver!!!
going to have to try it with the period (.) as many sites are now rejecting the "+" symbol in the emails.
