Anonymous E-mail
I didn’t know until tonight that ‘anonymous E-mail’ actually is a big industry.
In one day I got an anonymous email, and I was very surprised how that happened, and why somebody would email me an anonymous email?
I did some research, and I found out that E-mail is the greatest electronic surveillance system in use today! Whenever you send an email it passes trough multiple systems on the way to its recipient. At any of these points along the way your message can be copied and read.

Many computer users today are paranoid, with all the SPAM, and spy ware. Many users do not want to willingly give out their email address; therefore, sending email anonymously is a quick easy way to avoid getting listed on yet another SPAM list.
Some of the people will open and read the email if it’s an anonymous one. Anonymous emails are a way to try to get your email read. It’s a little odd, but it happens often. (I did the same thing.)
With an anonymous email, you can make a joke to a friend, everyone loves a good gag.
My opinion about using anonymous e-mail is that sometimes it is necessary, I’m pro about using this procedure when you feel like it, I will do more research about how it works, and I will start using it whenever it is necessary. Anonymous e-mail is one way to safeguard your privacy and keep cyber-snoops out of your personal business. Furthermore, using the right e-mail software is an important point for email security. Using buggy email software you are open to hacker attacks, since email contains your email software vendor and version number. There i
