Spam

One of the things that really bugs me about owning a domain name is the spam emails that are constantly sent to me trying to flog a similar sounding URL my way.

The emailers tell me 'X domain name is about to come due' and whether I would like to purchase it. They then inform me not to do anything if I am uninterested.

Weeks later, I get another email from them. This time they want me to click a link which will indicate to them that I don't want to accept their offer.

Do they think I am stupid?

Clicking the link will let them know I am alive and well.

And what's more, it will open me up to more spam.

Keep sending. I'll keep deleting.
