Please tell me how to get rid of these people

Create a email rule in your email client that runs when you receive an email. For these senders or email subjects, send them straight to trash.

I hardly ever get certain types of email (pharma and such) anymore because it goes straight to trash.

You may need to add a lot of rules over time, but it's worth it for beating the aggravation.

Adie, I too am receiving emails from these people as well as many other spammy emails. The ones you mention are truly annoying, and are totally unwelcome.
I have created rules within my email to filter these directly to my trash account, you may be able to do the same.

Thanks

I can't create rule because this is as I said going through my hosting email which is squirrel... I have no problem with my main email as I use outlook so everything is filtered.. This is for my paypal email that I didn't use as contact email...

Thanks

Just been thinking... and many of the spammers could be affected by this if we all took the time to report this!

The WSO award emails are promoting unsolicited emails to us and linking to WSOs via the payment systems (WSO+, JVZoo etc..) If we catch their tracking ID and complain the payment system admin may take action as they will know exactly who these links belong to...!

As a WSO seller I wouldn't want anybody receiving spammy emails promoting any of my products and would be very annoyed if I knew some affiliate was using these tactics to try and earn a commission.

Thanks

I'd be reporting the affiliate link to W+ and to the seller of the WSO. It's past time to start banning spammers from the affiliate program.

The seller and W+ can't act on info they don't have - but the affiliate link is an identifier so report it.

If possible and they can be tracked to a WF username, i say ban them here as well. Kill 2 birds with one stone...

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

I don't think there is a way for that but I will try to analyze these emails if I have time...

Stop using squirrel, you can use Outlook to fetch email directly from your hosting account via POP3 then use the filtering options as the people earlier has suggested here.

Here's a general tutorial for setting up Outlook Express:
