No, no.

I just don't get how my main email from .mac (that nobody has, nor do I use), can suddenly just get slammed.

something leaked, and i was not the one who did it.
I am anal about using alias's, in fact when one gets spammed I just stop that account from receiving and move on to the other one of 5.

I agree. Just yesterday? Dozens of spam - automated.

Coming from different email addresses but with the same or similar names. Often, but not always with the same ".ru"


The come so quickly they have the same timestamp.

Tip for you guys (if you don't use gmail as a forward to @me), create an alias, i created with my name etc.other@icloud.com and I use this address for all registrations, I do not trust Macrumors with my real email even
