- _ache_ 6mo agoI'm not denying that it happens. I'm saying that it not the classical way to spam people nowadays. It's obvious to any non native english speaker, when you have a spam in english, it is because they toke the email from the web. When it's in you native language, it's usually from a data breach. I'm vastly more spammed by the later. I can confirm it with unique email addresses of the "+" form (but not with the + character). Also when I'm spammed in english, it's for Web3 crypto stuff and from a data breach it's a phishing attempt.
- notpushkin 6mo agoI’ve run a small thingy last year, on its own domain, with a (project-specific) email in plaintext on the homepage. I’ve got a fair bit of spam to that address. But yeah, I’d say most junk mail is coming to (1) an address leaked from one Russian bank (!) I used, (2) the address listed in public business databases (I have a company in Estonia).
