Unsubscribe from Unwanted E-mail Safely
Whether it is safe to hit the unsubscribe button in spam emails depends on the source of the email.
• Reputable Companies: If the email is from a trusted source, such as brands you have shopped with or newsletters you have signed up for, hitting the unsubscribe button should be safe.
• Unknown Senders: For unsolicited spam from unknown senders, clicking unsubscribe may make things worse. You could inadvertently confirm that your email address is active, leading to even more spam.
If you are unsure, it is best to avoid clicking the unsubscribe link in the email. Instead, mark the email as spam. This will send future messages from the same sender straight to your spam folder.
Remember, it is always important to be cautious when dealing with emails from unknown sources to protect your personal information and support your online safety.
