How can I retrieve an e-mail address from spam?

Does someone else use your email address for their spam?

  • I am very annoyed by one of my family members who seems to register for things using MY email address. She has her own email address and yet constantly registers for things and randomly sometimes uses my email address. I just got another spam email from an organization related to this person's career. Their name was listed with MY email address. So it means when they registered for something they decided to use my email address! I have no idea why this person keeps doing this and clearly they don't plan on stopping. This person is an adult 30 years older than me. Has this happened to anyone else?! I have more than one email account but the one I use most of the time they seem to enjoy using for their spam emails! I don't get it because why register for something online if they don't want to be the one to receive the email messages?!

  • Answer:

    They don't want the messages, but the web page insists on an email address. You need to speak with them and tell them to stop. Sign them up for their own hotmail, yahoo or some other web email and tell them to use that address to send their spam to.
