Spam in gmail

harrys_nan

Hi,
I use gmail and keep getting emails from "mightydeals.co.uk"

I have tried to block them, marked them as phishing, followed some instructions I found online to totally block them, but I'm still getting them.
I even tried to sign in to them to cancel but surprise they do not recognise my email, so I haven't signed up to them by accident.
It's annoying me now, so can anyone tell me how I can stop getting them.

Not sure if this is relevant: (I have no opinion on the software that this site suggests you might download to help - be cautious as usual).

That's related to mightydeals.com not the .co.uk site which appears to have no relation to them.

Just set up a filter in Gmail to send them straight to the trash.

So you dont actually have a problem ..
Your email system is working as it should do.


Just never look in your trash and forget about them.


You cant stop someone SENDING you an email (If you cant contact them)
But you can decide what happens with it when it lands on your virtual doormat

When I block scammers in Outloook, they stay blocked. Doing the same in gmail does not always happen.

My experience is some emails in my Spam folder aren't really Spam and are real emails I wanted to see. So it is sensible to look through that folder every so often.

ok, but after 30 days in gmail trash they go forever! Hurrah!

I use thunderbird and my spammy email addresses just deletes the junk mails by default. Not even to the waste bin first.

A couple of other accounts they get sent to the recycle bin first, i have a quick look and just click empty.
