So if you sign up for forums, blogs, offers etc don't use your personal e-mail, create a new one because it is so easy for other people to scrap forums etc for e-mails.

Many people(I am a good example!) are curious about new things and download just to test. If someone wants to just test new software out, the best ways to protect information are: 1. <i>Use Temporary Mail Address</i>: Using a free inbox provider like yopmail.com, anyone can protect email address. This way, spammers is not going to get anything! 2. <i>Use Common Sense</i>: If site asks for submitting anything more than Name/Email, then you should not trust it at once. 3. <i>Have A Secondary Mail Address</i>: If someone does not choose a free inbox provider, then the best method is to register for a secondary mail address different from personal/business address. 4. <i>Train Spam Filters</i>: The problem starts with spam getting into Inbox. So, why not just eliminate it. By marking any suspicious mails as spam, you can train your mail provider's spam filter as you like(e.g. GMail is very good learner!) 5. <i>Use Offline Client</i>: Offline mail clients can be better at spam protection(only you use it and you can train as you like). By adding good anti spam filters/add-ons, anyone can avoid spam. Another factor that plays important role in spammer’s success is curiosity!
