Question 6

What are spams? How do they affect our life?

Answer

Spams are unwanted bulk emails that come from unsolicited sources.

Spam is a serious security concern as it can be used to deliver Trojan Horses, Viruses, Worms, Spyware, and organise targeted phishing attacks. Sometimes, spam attackers keep sending bulk emails till the email server is out of disk space.
