The CNN Alerts: Breaking News is the latest addition to the latest wave of CNN alerts spam mails that have been proliferating among email users. Like its CNN spam predecessors, the CNN Alerts: Breaking News provide links that when followed, may lead users into downloading harmful files into their computer. Some people have been spoofed into downloading malwares from the cnn breaking news email but with the new CNN Alerts: Breaking News Spam, some email users already receive warning telling them that such message may not actually come from whom it claims to be and advice is given against following links contained on the email.
Concern for some of the recipients of the message however is about how to unsubscribe from these CNN Alerts: Breaking news spam family. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to unsubscribe from these spam and clicking on the unsubscribe links within the body of the message will only result in your email receiving more spam in the future. Nevertheless, here are some things that you can do:
1. Mark the message as spam. This way, email service providers will be able to identify similar messages as spam in the future and these spam messages will least likely arrive in the mailbox as legitimate email.
2. Set up email filters. You can automatically delete or filter these spam messages by using email filters. Ehow has some helpful tips on how to set up email filters in Microsoft Outlook.
3. Use a reliable and effective spam blocker or spam filter. I cannot recommend any but you can google for spam blockers and even for free email spam blocker.
