Phishing & Spam emails.

I get up to a dozen scam/phishing emails every day, I tried left clicking the mouse on them, selecting "Report" which opens another box "Report Junk" which opens another box "Report & Unsubscribe" which states 'we will unsubscribe you so you stop receiving emails from this sender'.

I have been following this procedure for months now and am still getting bombarded by these unsolicited and nuisance emails, surely there must be a way to block them. Can anyone offer any advice?

Hi

 

Unsubscribing unfortunately just confirms your email address is correct and you get added to more spammers lists. It's self perpetuating.

 

Just delete them or us the report scam without unsubscribing.


Whatever you do, do not click on any links.

TalkTalk have requested that spam mail be reported to them, if it purports to comes from them.


How to do this can be found here
