I'll be honest, even I do this when it's a form that has an email requirement but that I don't otherwise care about at all. I'm not gonna sign myself up for spam. Sometimes example.com and whatever other testing TLD that comes to mind is blocked because they want something that could plausibly be a real email address, so I give them something that could plausibly be a real email address, like asfgjklahsfgjklh@asdfoghuasfga.com
- comfyinnernet 6y agoHave you tried theunabomberwasright@fbi.gov?
- lozaning 6y agoThat's why I own fakefakefake.email it gives me some minor pleasure to provide this email address to people who insist on having an email address for me.
- bialpio 6y agoI use @mailinator.com for that purpose, it's oddly satisfying to put "lolno@mailinator.com" / etc in those places.
- glandium 6y agoA lot of forms reject @mailinator.com and similar domains.
- ficklepickle 6y agoThen you use one of their alternate domains. Or you point a domain to one of their alternates. Check out the MX record for meowcats.fun, for example. It points to suremail.info, which points to mailinator. I have never had that domain rejected by a form. Shhh, don't tell anyone ;)
- nitemice 6y agoI've been using a@b.com just because it's quick & easy to type. I just looked it up, and it seems all the single-letter .com domains are reserved, so it should be fine.
