Hi all. I was curious about something this morning. I recently started doing fusioncash and some other survey sites online. I'd say about 10 times a day I'm inputting my personal address for surveys.
I'm wondering, for those of you who have been doing this a while, do you get TONS of junk mail? If so, how much, and what types? I am a newbie, so I've yet to have my mailbox inundated, but I'm figuring it's only a matter of time. :)
Thanks much!

Trust me you will get a lot of junk mail.
-
Yup.
One way to stifle this is for every few offers that you do, make a new email on GMX.com (its the fastest email app that I know of) and then you never have to worry about too much of the junk build up
-
yes. whenever one tries to get into any website, and accidently clicks on some ads or fill out any survey, your IP address get locked in and that's how you get so many junk emails directed to your inbox. The best way to avoid that is to keep away from such websites that don't appeal you and also have a free email account opened just for those junk mails and not worry about opening them at all.
:wave:

The junk mail will start comming very soon and you will get a lot of them. I usually hit the botton to "un-subcrbe" from those pesky junk mails. However, sometimes that does not even work. If it does not work, I "report them as spam" and that definitely stops the junk mail comming to you. Good luck! :thumbsup:
-
I actually don't get TONS of junk mail. I do, however, get lots of junk email. I have a separate email set up for just Fusion Cash, because it can get to be too much. I'll get a few in my mail though, but not too many.
-
Of course, if you sign up with a lot of offers, you'll get them.
-
oh yeah you will get so much e-mail junk mail by using fusion cash.
-
Yes, the junk email will come. Get another email account.
-
i get a ton of junk emails everyday. but i totally think it's worth it, i've made a little over $70 so far so i'll take the junk email!!!!!!!
-
I get so much junk mail. A lot in the mail but mostly in emails. I get about 30 emails a day that are junk mail per email account. No matter how many times I unsubscribe it still seems to add up! Signing up for offers is what does it. With sites like these, it's just what you have to put up with.
-
I get a moderate amount of junk. Luckily, I use a service with a one-click "delete all" function for the spam folder. No worries.

Hi everyone. I'm actually the person who started this topic.
I should have been more clear. I meant ACTUAL mail, as from the postman. Not email. I was curious if you get a lot of stuff in your post.
Naturally, I do get tons of junk email...already. haha. I'm ok with that. Gmail is great because you can filter and clean out really easily. :thumbsup:

I do get some from surveys and stuff, but not too much!
-
I have not recieved any actual mail, I have got surveys but not junk mail 8)
-
I get alot of junk email. But I never open it I just delet it. It goes along with puting your info on the net. Most of it is in my spam folder though.
-
Yes. I open my mail next to the recycle bin.
-
i also get alot of junk email. i just delete them. i also get plenty of scam emails saying that i won money in some foreign lottery :bs:
-
Junk mail was not a big problem for me, but once I started to fill out survey site info I now have a big junk mail problem :BangHead:
-
I get a lot of junk mail, but I also do a really good job trashing or removing myself from the junk mail.
-
I was worried about this too. I just made one of my email accts I don't use that often into the junk receptacle lol. If you get junk sent to your house then save and recycle it! you could prolly get money for that too right? or use it to make stuff. Like a paper boat lol. that'd be neat though!
-
yes but I send it to trash and delete each day so it doesn't clog up my email.
-
yep junk mail will come.

hahaha. Paper boat. That's a good idea. Lately I've just been tossing it. And where I live doesn't offer recycling. We're kind of in the dark ages here. But I like your idea!
-
I get alot of junk email about a pharmacy or watches. There is no way for me to unsubscribe. Anyone how?
-
Yes, I get a lot of junk mail! Fortunately, more and more of it is going to my junk folder!
-
I get tons of junk mail daily. if i am away for a couple of days it takes me Sooooooo Long to get the junk out of the way. in a course of 2 days i get between 200- 500 emails and most are just junk... thanks to everyone on the advise of how to try to elimanate some of the unwanted emails.
-
Kinda...not TOO much though.
-
create a secondary email account (gmail or yahoo)... and use it for surveys.
-
well i created new mail for all surveys.i never open daily i delete everything at a time.i don't have that much patience to face them.
-
A lot...just tired of it
-
I get a good amount of junk mail, but it's not totally overwhelming. You will get used to hitting the delete button on your email really quickly, though ;) Get a different email address for your offers or else get a good spam blocker!

@vangogh198 - Hi, thanks for the question! I haven't received ANY junk mail, yet. I started on July 20th, 2010. If I do receive junk mail, here's what I do: open it up (to see what it is), and then take MY address (the middle part of the envelope/letter) and then SHRED that part and that DOES work! I usually then don't receive junk mail!!!!!
-
Yes I do. that and bills is almost the only thing I do get. I some time get free samples.
-
i actually enjoy gettin gthe junk mail, some actually is not really junk, i just recieved a survey for a book that says i will be receiving a cash reward along with free gifts, which i pretty nice.
-
Oh my I opened my email after a couple days and I've been spammed to hell lol. oh well. But thank god for the delete button!

Way too much!! Yuck!!
-
I get quite a bit of junk email, I don't want to call it spam, because I signed up for some of the things to receive the email. You can get a special email to use when you complete the offers then just log on and delete them every once in a while. :peace:
-
you should use an email address specifically for the surverys bc you will get a lot of junk mail
-
I haven't got much real life junk mail. I got a coupon packet for craft supplies many months ago, and recently an LL Bean catalog, and several fashion magazine offers. I think real junk mail is obsolete.
-
yes differently mail box,email box everywhere
