Alas there is no statute that protects people and their email addresses from abuse in this way. Anyone can enter an email into a webform even one that isn't even theirs and create an account and get away with it. I myself never found out who was entering my email into dating sites and other places. I wanted to talk to them and tell them to stop, but I was powerless to do anything. When you share a name with 300 other men in the USA, and some of them forgot to enter a number or series of letters for their own address, it comes back to my address. My point is that I found out the hard way that most websites don't even bother to validate the email, take any email, and people who own that email get unwanted messages from that site.
