Probably the most common way for
a spammer to get your email address is by buying a list
of email addresses from a "harvester." The harvester
is just a person who has a program automatically visit web
page after web page, gathering every email address it finds
on those pages.
By
creating this page of bogus email addresses and linking
it from my web page, I will infect the address list of every
address-harvester who visits my page with over two thousand
invalid email addresses!
If
you have a web page of your own, please take a few seconds
to strike a blow in the anti-spam war! Just copy &
paste my addresses into a blank page. For added pleasure
you can also add reply addresses that you get with junk
mail sent to you & spam the spammer!
If
you have found your address here, it is because you have
sent me unsolicited junkmail. To have it removed e-mail
me with a guarantee that my details have been removed from
your server.
