For the last 6 months, our email box has been deluged with a variety of spam in several languages including French, Russian, Chinese, Korean and Japanese. We have been offered diet solutions from Rachel Ray, Gwen Stefani, Ellen de Generis and Oprah! Dr. Oz has piped in with ways to erase wrinkles, and look 50 years younger (we exaggerate!) It was a colossal waste of time to sort every morning through a 100 mails plus in both of our main emails.
We have had experts around the world offering SEO miracles--ranking #1 on Google! We have had web developers who want to convert our site to mobile (it has been mobile friendly for years)! And, we have an assortment of babes wanting to have an affair with either one of us, as well as seminar offers on how to have an affair discreetly.
On the real estate front, we have had a group of agents wanting to teach us how to get 19 listings a week (we are not exaggerating), no money down and how we can be overnight millionaires! We have similar lines from real estate coaches. We have also been signed up for real estate trainings to save our place in some latest and greatest new technology! All we had to do is enter our Credit Card Information!
We followed the Apple protocols for junk mail, but that did not seem to eradicate the problem. Further research revealed that Mac World recommended "SpamSieve". They have a 30 day free trial, and it does not require a credit card to sign up.
There is a version for PC's. You can learn more from this article in PC World. We can certainly recommend the Mac version. We just bought the software for $30. That is it, no renewal fees! We have been delighted to live in Spam Free email world.
