Spam

[wynford]

I was getting a lot of spam before and then nothing for the longest time and now I'm getting spam again... I've marked the email as spam and have created filters, but they keep coming.

Is there anything that can be done?

I've been getting one or two every morning since Monday - most with a Shoppers Drug Mart or Amazon logo offering a prize if I click on a link, Also creating filters but they keep coming and am I'm unable to forward/report them to Shaw (keep getting an unknown error message).

@robthomas -- this topic has previously appeared within this discussion forum.

for more information.

Are you "forwarding"  to exactly one ID, namely: reportspam@shaw.ca ?

If you try to forward to multiple IDs, Shaw does not seem to allow it.

@wynford @robthomas 

Are the spam messages showing up in your inbox or do they go to your junk/spam folder?

[wynford]

They are going to my inbox... spam about Dyson vacuums and ED pills and others

[robthomas]

They show up in my inbox and I've been trying to send them to reportspam@shaw.ca only.

Creating filters for these new spam emails just doesn't seem to be working anymore, they just keep coming through with a slightly different email address

[robthomas]

All of my spam emails so far contain "pc.gc.ca", em.uber.com" or "em.mail.stubhub.com" in the address. So creating filters based on "From contains: pc.gc.ca" etc. has worked for me and at least allows me to send this crap directly to the deleted folder. I'm still seeing 2 or 3 of these every morning.

Those seem to be the same for me... so i've just been clicking 'SPAM' and along with filters and hope Shaw gets it
