Answer 1

There are a lot sites track your habit and where you place your e-mail address. Someone sells it for a fee. You don't have much control over it. You should purchase a virus suite, which will block phishing and spyware blocker; McAfee, Norton, etc.
For now, you place these garbage e-mails to SPAM bucket if you are using Yahoo email. Do not open these e-mails, those sites know with a receipt once you opened. You may have to change your email account. Yes, it is a pain.
You should also open a secondary e-mail account just to surf the Internet, so you know all these e-mails are garbage.
Good luck!

Answer 2

If you ever placed your email address anywhere online in any form at any time in any manner, it is subject to and findable by what are called "spambots". These are programs that do nothing but wander around the web searching for anything shaped like [e-mail] so's they can keep a list and start sending junk mail of all sorts.

Just out of curiosity, I Googled my email address once (I have several free emails), and went through 30 pages of search results, and finally found a place where there was someone with a "list of contacts" in alphabetical order of email addresses (including mine) with the contacts list title of some junk email I've been receiving.

Moral of the story: don't store your email address online if you can at all avoid it!
