This what I do when I get Spam Emails, I pick out the one that I dislike the most and starting forwarding them all my spam too them and give them a dose of their own Medicine.
@@SuperDirtyred1 a) that makes YOU a spammer, and b) since spammers forge the "From" address, you're not even reaching your intended target, but rather spamming innocent bystanders.
@@SuperDirtyred1 You are sending it to a spoofed email. You are not helping the issue you are making it worse. Like Leo said, you are sending it to a innocent bystander.
I've been getting SPAM from what I swear is the same source since last December. It's dropped off to one or two a day, but it's taken nine months of marking it as SPAM and not opening these SPAM emails for it to get down to that level. I can't believe how long these a--holes have persisted, though.
I just want to say THANK YOU ! 🙏 I turned ON SILENCE UNKNOWN CALLER - now SPAM IS a greatly reduced. THAT AND ADDITIONAL FREE ARMOR FROM ATnT and now SPAM IS MORE RARE. GLORY!
There needs to be an option to block emails all together especially spam emails. Cuz I'm currently receiving alot of spam emails which I never even subscribed to and it's annoying having to unsubscribe and delete the emails individually I never subscribed to any of these emails so I'm confused to why I'm getting them and how these people got my email address That's why there needs to be an option to block emails. How can I fix this issue Will I need to change my email address now
I agree that Gmail's spam detection is quite good but don't trust it fully. Unfortunately you should occasionally check your spam folder as well. I sometime get newsletters that I have signed up for in my Spam folder. I think it's a good habit to mark those as no-spam.
This doesn't help at all. I already marked the spam emails as spam and it does nothing cuz I'm still receiving the emails. And blocking obviously doesn't work cuz I'm still receiving them from different email addressess. So I wanna know will I need to change my email address but then I don't wanna lose all my emails etc
That won't help either. Eventually you'll start getting spam again. You didn't mention your provider, but this really depends a lot on them doing the right thing. Gmail's spam filter remains the best in my experience.
@@ibstayfly Changing email addresses is only a short term solution. Eventually every email address gets spam. A longer term solution is to use an email provider that does a better job of filtering the spam.
What email companies are best at blocking or moving spam over ? I’m with hotmail. Is google better or what ?? What company can I pay to help move my spam into junk !! To help filter this crap out !??
Welcome to my world. It's frustrating, I know, but it's important that people understand what's possible, or not, even if - especially if - it's not what they would want. Applies to a LOT more than spam.
Block the emails gmail in Gmail if it still countues recommend deleting Google account I know it's annoying to start over again but it's only way to get rid of these scum bag scammers
@@christophertuckwell9665 Not sure what you mean by "block the emails in gmail" ?? If you could explain further that would be great! THANK YOU so much for replying. I am at my wits end. I dont want to delete my google account because I use that email address for my job and it would be a HUGE task to create a new email.
Some tips for managing the flood... since you can't stop it.

Public executions for scammers might stop some of them.
would stop only the ones you execute.
@@carlmayo7650 not so sure it would even stop them !

Too much talk and very little direction on handling.

More than just a good habit: it supposedly helps train the spam filter so it (slowly) learns not to filter them as spam in the future.
Gmail has worst spam
You should see yahoo. Makes gmail seem squeaky clean.
Actually Gmail is good handling spam outlook normally email provider what gets spam I find yahoo prerty and never rarely recvive spam

@@askleonotenboom ok so how can I do that without changing my email address
@@ibstayfly Unless you own your own domain name (like I own askleo.com) you cannot.

My best experience has been with Gmail.
Bruh.... Get off hotmail. Between hotmail and yahoo they go hand and hand with the worst spam.
As sensible as it is, this is NOT the advice I wanted to hear.
