Spam On The Menu This Holiday Season

from the what-else-is-new? dept

Ah, the holiday season is quickly approaching. Time for family gatherings, gift-wrapped presents, holiday lights... and spam. It should come as no surprise to anyone that holiday related spam is on the increase and is expected to reach insane levels in the next few weeks. Spammers are apparently trying to use the holiday season to boost their response rates, which just means the rest of us have to spend more time cleaning up the mess they've left in our in-boxes.
