addtocart spam

Options
Is anyone else getting huge amounts of spam from emails with variants of addtocart in their address? All pretending to be from reputable companies and all saying congratulations you've won something.

It's a fairly recent problem but it's a proper nuisance, occasionally wem's do get sent to spam and at the moment I'd miss them as they'd get lost amongst the masses a spammy emails coming in.

Does anyone know where they came from or how to stop them? I can't block the senders address as every address has a slightly different combination of numbers/letters on the end. So annoying!

    If, as the guide advises, you use an e-mail address just for comping then switch to a new one and almost all mail to the old one will be irrelevant within a couple of months.
