Bombarded with Corona Virus Emails
My email | 3/13/20 | Mr. Vanity

Posted on 03/13/2020 2:16:38 PM PDT by Raycpa

My email box is filled each day with spam from the various banks, vendors, financial institutions, non-profits, hospitals, doctors, and government agencies all anxious to tell me how well they are washing doorknobs and taking other precautions.

Please make them stop!

I got an email from Mayor Pete offering to wash my knob.
Should I have not deleted it?

Which Freepers are writing you emails?

Absolutely that is what some of the Wuhan spammers we have posting thread after thread would do.

Unsubcribing usually works.

Most email clients have a mail filter section. Setup a new filter that triggers on certain keywords like corona, etc and auto move to garbage

None, I talking about my work email. The latest was from my shredding company. I really don't care if they clean their trucks.

Just an FYI: The corona virus (crown/halo) had been first isolated in 1937 that was infectious in birds and had the ability to devastate poultry stocks.

Scientists first found evidence of human coronavirus (HCoV) in the 1960's in the noses of people with the common cold.

from an article: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/256521

more good reading there.

American tort law

everyone’s afraid of getting sued, so they put out this BS so when they are faced with some ridiculous law-suit, they can claim they have done all they could and gave fair-warning.

LOL I get the same thing, the worst was from Westlaw talking about how they are keeping their workers safe. I guess I should be worried about getting the virus if I use their legal search system?

But I might hope that ours cleans the bins that they take away and bring back.

I get what you’re saying, but you can set up a filter to ignore any certain words in any email client.

I’m OK with it, myself, except to wonder ‘why the hell weren’t they always doing this sanitation?’ :-)

Good idea except I am waiting for the email from the IRS that says the tax due date is delayed due to the Corona virus.

I mistakenly clicked on that once and it was about buttplug removal.

Clicked it off after about four seconds.

What the absolute HELL?!

Congratulations on writing a post that wasn’t pornographic.
We know that is difficult for you.
