I keep getting these emails, they are always from a different sender, and they have really random subjects. Then when you view the email, it has information about how you should buy this stock, bla bla bla! They always go straight to my bulk mail, but they are still annoying the crap out of me. Does anyone else get those and is there any way to stop them?

I used to get them a lot. You can use an email program that has adaptive filters like Mozilla Thunderbird. If you have earthlink, you can use its spamblocker facility that allows you to get mail only from approved senders.

I get tons of them. I even tracked a few to see what happened. This is all clasic pump and dump crap that they want you to buy to drive the price up so they can sell out at a profit. I keep reporting them to my Internet provider but it's no help. It's worse than the drug mails that seem to have stopped. I hope someone has the answer.

I don't know of any way to stop them. But if you are in the market to buy stocks you might check out the Motley Fool investor service for some real advice. It is a pay site but free advice is just that Free. www.fool.com

Most emails I get now are from Nigeria asking me to be someone's next of kin.
I usually have over 10,000 spam e mails in my Yahoo bulk mail.
