If they are already going into the junk folder thanks to gmail’s spam filters, you shouldn’t expect much else.

That’s about as good as it is going to get.


The person who figures out how to stop spam altogether without interfering with legitimate email will become an overnight billionaire and will probably be worshipped as a demigod for the rest of eternity. Right alongside whoever figures out how to completely stop robocalls.

Thanks! Trying signing in at gmail then reporting as phishing, but i suppose they will just change their “email” somehow and end up sending more junk than ever…

Will probably just select in junk, delete, and go to trash and delete all…

These junkers seem like college students, using college computers and then going home when classes are over, and that is why they stop for several hours. ( If so, hope they flunk class, and get expelled.)
