Friday before last I decided i wouldn't delete my spams just to see how many I got. Well its Sunday nite a week later & I have 875. This is ridiculious. Most are from the same people over & over again. They neeed to get a life.

Imagine how rich we all would be if we actually won all the money from the fraudulent lotteries from other countries. I don't know about you all but I would be a Multi billionaire.

I get alot if I don't change my email address every few years.
I just in the past 10 days or so started getting alot of spam again. I'm not a surfer. I go to the same few places only. But in the last week or so I've gone to iTunes and now I'm getting spam, so I wonder if they don't keep addresses secure?
I'll give it another month (I keep marking them as Spam and sending them to Yahoo) but if it gets worse I'll have to change my email again. So annoying.

Are you counting your inbox or your spam folder? If it is your spam folder your email provider is keeping those separate for you. Means they are catching them.
