when you sign up for "free" services, if you use gmail, most of the time you can add a suffix so you know if you sign up with anexampleemail+service@gmail, it should still resolve, and you can track who is selling your info to other spammy lists
although gmail reads the contents of your mail messages and builds ad profiles based off that
"Google: Filter protects users from scams"
Literally ALL the RNC and Trump spam I received were certainly scams. >

A British journalist friend of mine subscribed to Trump's mailing list out of curiosity in 2020 and received multiple (what can only be called) spam messages every day. Shit like HI IT'S ME, DON JR. MY DAD, PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP HAS NOTICED YOU HAVEN'T DONATED TO HIS CAMPAIGN YET AND HE'S VERY DISAPPOINTED IN YOU! HE NEEDS YOUR HELP TO STOP THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS FROM DOING X TO STEAL YOUR FREEDOM. DONATE IMMEDIATELY AND YOUR CONTRIBUTION WILL BE MATCHED 280X! And then if you did donate there'd be a hidden thing that made the donation recurring every month.
It absolutely was spam. And it was weird how it always called people out personally. >

Somehow I ended up on the mailing list despite never signing up or wanting to. I was annoyed at first, then it just became fascinating.
Its defenitly spam, the constant variations of "Daddys disapointed in you" always made me chuckle though.
