I bought one thing from Wayfair and got nine emails about it over the course of four days.

    Never buy anything from AliExpress then. Make one order but from 2 sellers and you get around 20 emails and they are not even helpful emails they are basically just ads.

        Yeah I’ve literally never gotten an email from AliExpress over an order in my life lol. They don’t even email me confirmations or shipping notices. Which I like cuz then I just get a nice surprise 2-3 weeks later lol.

    Unsubscribe and if they’re still emailing you, mark them as spam. Then signup for something like SimpleLogin

    I purchased a new domain just for creating aliases with SimpleLogin. I have over 300 email aliases now. If any start spamming I simply delete the alias. Also if I get unrelated emails I know exactly which website leaked or sold my email address.

      I do the same thing, but you do realize you do it -because- it’s a problem, right?

      Like you shouldn’t need a separate email for “I want to buy this/sign up for this, but I know I’m going to get a fuckton of emails so I need to use this separate email address to protect my main one from junk”. That just shouldn’t be a thing.

        I run a catchall account. Every vendor gets [vendor]@myemail

        Stops spam, stops data theft, stops phishing stops data brokers. Makes tracking data on me useless.

        To be honest, it works so well, I can’t imagine not having it.

        I mean maintaining a junkmail account isn’t a problem.

        I never worry about deleting things, I never get unwanted notifications I never worry about it. Ez
