I also get texts telling me I owe for tolls. My sunpass auto-replenishes, so again - no need to even check on it.

I have multiple e-mail addresses for different purposes. I never get spam or scams on four of them, because I've never signed up for anything on those four. Another one is the one I use for all my loyalty cards. I *expect* spam and scam e-mails on that one, but that makes it easy to filter out and "select all" and delete.

Any e-mail in my other accounts with the word "hard" or the phrase "your woman" in the subject line - automatically gets filtered into my spam box. I get a lot of special offers for canadian viagra.
Having multiple email accounts is a good idea. At this point, it would be a hassle to do it.
