How to protect yourself from SPAM
Spam is unsolicited email. FlipsideJourney.com only sends emails to those who requested to receive it, this is called permission-based email.
1. Do you see your email address in the FROM line?
2. Are you receiving email from non-specific addresses such as:
* sales@domain.com, business@domain.com, webmaster@domain.com, info@domain.com, or other general addresses?
3. Are you receiving the same non-specific emails from multiple email addresses?
4. Are you receiving multiple emails from an unrecognized email mailing list?
5. Does the originating address appear to be fake?
6. Does the email’s subject line contain false or misleading information?
7. Does the email fail to provide a working link to unsubscribe?
8. Does the site fail to process your unsubscribe requests within 10 days of the request?
If your email meets any of this criteria, DO NOT OPEN IT and delete it immediately – it is SPAM.
