1. A KEURIG COFFEE MAKER
2. A NINJA AIR FRYER
3. A 170 PIECE STANLEY TOOL SET
4. A CLUB CAR GOLF CART
5. A COSTCO $500 GIFT CARD
6. AN ULTIMATE NON-STICK COOKWARE SET
7. A $500 SHELL GIFT CARD
8. AN IPHONE 14 PROMAX
9. A SAMSUNG GALAXY S23 (Whatever that is)

I'm leaving the house for a few hours. I can't wait to see what else I've won by the time I get back.

Remember the Do Not Call Registry? Whatever happened to that and we need one for email.

Based on the emails I have read, I am SO THANKFUL that I am not a woman who lived at Camp Lejenue and killed weeds around my house with Roundup and freshened up with talcum powder.

Really thought if you sent a relatively small series of service charges it would come.

So what about all those offers for enlargement pills?

Was away on a cruise or past 10 days and when we got back had over 1000 messages in my spam folder almost all to give us things we will never get.

apparently they find enough fools to bite.

Well, yeah, I'd have to be plain stupid to not be willing to put $10K up front in exchange for a multi-million $ payout. My mommy didn't raise no fools, we like to say.
I thought I'd be rich by now, but evidently there was just a delay in moving the funds. Should be no problem.

Sent in my fees, just waiting for it to hit my bank account. Pulled a slick one on those Nigerian tax people trying to steal the Prince's money.

Be sure to check when you get back, I simply can't believe at 9 a.m. you STILL have not won a FREE cruise ! Surely by the time you return.

I won a free golf art from Lowes! Too bad I had just bought one and didn’t have room for it so l didn’t bother clicking. it.

I know this might be unpopular but I wonder if there was a minimal charge such as .1 cent charge for sending an email, all this garbage would stop. As long as it's completely free they'll flood the cyber world with this trash.

Being a female Jerri, I am so lucky to get all the “need a call girl?” emails….lol

So you guys are getting all this free stuff and I had my Amazon account "disabled" due to a billing issue! Luckily they sent me a link to "recovery" my account because if I don't take action within 48 hours it will be permanently "suspension"! I've got to get busy!!

I fixed my spam problem by changing my email address. Outlook.com allows you to have a different address. Add it, then tell everybody you know to use it instead. Once your old address receives only spam, delete it.

You can do this with Google Mail, too. I have my general one, one set up for use only with my daughter and hubby (which is synced to my phone) which I keep "clean", and one set up that I use when requesting free samples. I still get some spam on my regular one but most goes to my "throw away" email.

Unsubscribing does not work they realize you are a real email address and you read their trash.

recently getting spam from someone who uses same beginning of email address but changes everything after "@" so they can send by the millions and blocking will not help.

I think....LOL... because you forgot one step, you are to CALL them and give them your CC number, that's probably it...LOL !

Worked for us for "awhile". Took a LONG time to see it begin to drop off, but... then found out you have to continually renew your request ! Too bad, from the consumer perspective, it would seem register ONCE, and it stays that way until YOU request to be taken off the list... but of course, that would benefit the consumer, so we don't want that ! It's like the CC "laws", seems the politicians of both parties have no interest in "the consumer".... LOL !
