Are you bombarded with unwanted emails?  I was getting up to 20 sexually explicit emails per day.  The sender(s) cleverly misspelled words in the subject line to get past filters (reversing or duplicating letters in words).  Needless to say, I was getting fed up with these vulgar subject lines.  I searched the internet to find if there was any way to report spam.  Luckily I found that I could Report Spam to the Federal Trade Commission by forwarding unwanted or deceptive spam to spam@uce.gov.

I then diligently started forwarding all the disgusting emails to the FTC.  I am happy to say that in a matter of days, THE SPAM STOPPED, at least for a couple weeks.  The sender(s) then found a different technique and have started sending spam again.  I am only getting 1-2 a day and am happy to say that the content of these emails are not as bad, mostly about viagra.

For me, it has become habit - I forward each and every spam to the FTC.  Will you please join me in the effort to STOP SPAM? 

PLEASE FORWARD ANY SPAM EMAILS to spam@uce.gov and be sure to include the full email header.

Thank you for reading!
