Admin@Viagra emails

SOLUTION! Many thanks to Adro (in post 19), as requested, here is the solution if you've been getting these emails in your Hotmail account-
"On the hotmail inbox webpage there is a drop-down menu on the right hand side labelled "options". Open the menu and click on "More Options...". Under the "Junk e-mail" header on the options page is a link labelled "Safe and blocked senders", click this and once the page has loaded click on the "Blocked senders" link. The page that comes up allows you to enter the e-mail address or domain of the person/bot that you would like to block. Add both "admin@viagra.com" and "@viagra.com" to the list and this should hopefully solve all of our problems.
If you are not using Hotmail, I'm sure there must be a similar option available to you if you have a quick look around in your e-mail options/tools."
I've seen a few posts in various places on this forum now about these emails, and I started getting them a couple of weeks ago, so I'm guessing it was a freebie that we have signed up for.
Does anyone have any ideas which freebie there're from, or, even better, how to stop them? Even my junk mail filter usually lets them through, despite me blocking the address.
I'm now getting them on a daily basis, and it's fricking annoying!

no fix but setting up a seperate email in future for free stuff usually helps! you're always gonna get it:heart: ... Spend and let spend ...0

Ditto here too .... :-( I hate them, the worst thing is, I've actually now started getting land-mail now too.
If my sex life needed improving (thanks!) then I wouldn't be going to a sleazy company!
It must be something we've all applied for as mine also started about 4 - 6 weeks ago!0 -
I think it must be linked to an American freebie offer as all mine appear to come from USA/Canada.
All my e mails are encouraging me to increase the size of my manhood.....shame I am a woman!! Oh and they also send me fat loss
e mails.....I have to admit I could perhaps do with taking them up on those offers!!0 -
I am getting these too,some to junk and now today some to main inbox. It must be linked to MSE.0

all mine including this one for last 5 weeks go into junk -nearly all from Canadamay you live in interesting times0

I DO use a different account for my freebies which is why I can't understand the admin@viagra ones, and they get through my junk filter too.
The only place I can think of where I use my regular email is Ipoints (Unless I've not been concentrating and accidently used my regular email,but I doubt that)0 -
I've also been getting them... sigh, presume it's one of the freebies I've signed up for.0

I was getting about 4 or 5 per day since I signed up for matterbox. Thats the same week they started- could be coincidence, but had done other freebieslike makeup/cosmetics before that. The reason that I assumed it was matterbox is that why would a viagra company try to get the clientel list of places like dior or chanel? But like I said, could just all be a concidence.
I sent a very strong letter to hotmail, as they were going straight to my inbox despite me reporting each and everyone of them as "phishing scams" by carefully selectring them to go to my junk box from my inbo, and then from my junk box, selecting them as spam. If yiu just delete them as junk from your inbox, they get deleted, they dont get a chance to be reported.
I haven't had any since. But its only been 48 hours...its early days yet!0
