How to Stop Spam

Valentine's Day is a special day for some people, especially for those who celebrate it. This also happens in the world of spam in which spammers use this special day to spread the emails spam to the victim. This should be our  wisely to prevent loss to us.

Sharf says that people should be wary of the numerous links in e-mail messages that offer to sell goods or services for Valentines.

"By sending legitimate looking Valentine themed promotional emails with links that don't work, a person might be encouraged to click the 'unsubscribe' link in a bid to stop getting further emails of this type. The unsubscribe option is actually just another trick to get you to click links and divulge details.

The message that brings an attractive offer is intended to gather email addresses by making the user suspicious of the expired page which will cause them to unsubscribe. By doing this, however, the user will hand it over his email address to the spammers and it's possible that this may be used to harvest email addresses for later Valentine's Day-related attacks.
