most newsletters have that familiar "You can unsubscribe at any time!" option...

but how do you know that for sure? What if unsubscribing from an e-mail newsletter actually prompted the publisher to sell your e-mail address to spammers, who then sent you more spam?

Now there's an easy way to know in advance whether it's safe to subscribe to or unsubscribe from an e-mail list. Best of all, it's free :

Thanx for the info.
This happened with a friend of mine once .. he clicked on unsubscribed and got directed to a 'thank you' page. After that the amount of spam increased exponentially.
