If you want people to contact you by leaving your e-mail address on forums or Twitter, then you’re simply attracting spam robots to take advantage of your e-mail address and send you unsolicited mails which are absolutely irritating. Actually, the best way is to prevent posting your e-mail in text on these public sites but sometimes you just need to do so for some reasons. But if you don’t want to become an easy spam target, then I’d suggest you trying out a free service called Scr.im that blocks out potential spammers from getting your e-mail address.
In a bid to protect your e-mail address before sharing it, so only real people will use and hence getting less spam, Scr.im will convert your e-mail address into a safe and short URL just like TinyURL. When people need to contact you and click on the link, it’ll then takes a strict measure to prevent automated spammers by requiring the real reason to select the correct block of letters that is identical to the image provided. Once he or she passes through this step, the e-mail address will appear.
In my own opinion, it’s really useful especially to those who frequently release their e-mail address on forums and social networking websites. Of course, without Scr.im most likely they will receive tons of spam mails in their i”nbox” which are useless to them. So the best way to protect your e-mail address before sharing got to be Scr.im.
