Spamming is the sending of unsolicited e-mail advertising a certain product or service. This type of unsolicited e-mail is what is considered junk mail. Due to the proliferation of products and services on the Internet, some advertisers have used this annoying tactic in order to promote their products and services.
Laws are now being passed and approved in order to put a stop to this practice. Some states have placed hefty fines on those found guilty of sending unsolicited e-mails. Collecting of e-mail addresses or opening multiple e-mail addresses for the purpose of sending unsolicited e-mails is also being prohibited.
