Dealing with Spam Mail

Effectively prevent spam mail●Lengthen your e-mail address!

Spam mail is created by combining ran-dom letters and numbers. Since long e-mail addresses that include letters, numbers and symbols receive relatively less spam e-mail, lengthening your e-mail address is an effective deterrent.

●Avoid registering to receive e-mail!Once your e-mail address is regis-tered in an e-mail sender list, your e-mail address may be shared with malicious businesses. Please take the following precautions.

• Do not register with or apply to suspicious sites that offer “free gifts” or “free down-loads.”

• Do not reply to spam mail or access URLs in spam mail.

• Do not reveal your address or phone number on message boards on the Internet.

• Please note that messages sent but not received may count in some cases.
