When registering for a site, a valid email address is often required to send a confirmation email. But in many cases, the first shipment is followed by others, this time advertising messages. Then how to avoid pollution of our main mailbox ?
It's simple, There are free services that provide us with a disposable email address valid for a while so that we can use it on a site that asks us for an address valid email when registering.
For this I offer 5 sites that allow you to create a fake temporary email address. They also allow you tosend an anonymous email:
- Yopmail offers public email addresses available and accessible without creation or password
- Trashmail redirects emails to your real address. When the transfer limit is reached, the email address of Trashmail will be automatically deleted.
- Disposable.org offers you an email address that forwards all emails it receives to your regular email address for an hour, a day, a week or a month.
- mail temp offer you a disposable temporary email. As soon as it is created, forward all the emails it receives to your usual email address.
- mohmal offers a choice of redirection or disposable public email addresses.
That's it that's all. Yes I know there are a lot of other services but I have given you the most reliable ones and which I use personally! 😉 Otherwise if you have other reliable services do not hesitate to share them with us in a comment.
I found the site it's hmamail, you choose the validity time you want up to a year
a few months ago I found the possibility of creating an anonymous disposable address valid for one year. I don't know on which site
I am still looking for a fake email address
thank you for this information but with an email address we have our IP address so with these addresses mentioned above is our IP address protected??
what you can also do, from time to time, is to 'falsify' your 'gmail' email address with a +.
example: firstname.lastname@gmail becomes lastname.firstname+ldmr@gmail.com
all the spam you receive from ldmr should be easily visible in gmail.
Thank you Gilles
Hello it does not work I tested.
Thanks for the tip..
I had already heard of “disposable email”, but this article sheds light on a lot of things for me!
Well, it must be said that most sites using auto-responders nevertheless respect anti-spam policies… Spam does not come from them… To avoid spam, also, avoid posting your address in forums. And for webmasters, NEVER put your email directly on the site. Prefer an image with the email (so that it is not detectable by robots that collect emails for spamming) or use a contact form with a captcha code..
Thank you Mathieu, that's very good advice you gave there!
I only add the use of an antispyware, indeed, spyware is able to recover personal information, such as the name, first name and also the email address then they are used by marketing companies who will not hesitate not to flood our main mailbox!!
