I have been receiving spam to unique addresses provided to H&R Block for over a year now. If this is the same company you used, you aren't the only one. Using an email address with the original company name clearly embedded within it makes tracking down this kind of abuse easier. It has a side effect of annoying sales weasels that try to follow up after I download crappy evaluation software. A quick scan of my mail logs from the past week shows 8 different companies that either sold or leaked my email address to spammers. -HD On Wednesday 05 July 2006 03:09, screwedbytaxes () hushmail com wrote:
The recent thread on the exposed data containing hospital records made me think to ask something here. I have recently received spam to several email addresses created explicitly and solely for filing my US federal taxes online through an internet tax filing system. The emails I received are tied to four separate filings by four separate people on a COMPLETELY unrelated subject through an IP address managed by a completely different person than the entity that these addresses were given to.
