7 of 14 - If I unsubscribe won't the spam stop?

If you didn't have to subscribe to get it, there is little chance that unsubscribing will get rid of Spam.  Professional spammer use this trick to validate their email address list.  They buy or steal lists sometimes containing millions of email addresses.  Large percentages of these addresses may be invalid.  By unsubscribing to the list, you are informing the spammer that your email address is a good one (its valid and used by you), and may be sold on to other spammers.  Be prepared for more Spam, from many more sources.  A better alternative would be to try blocking Spam, or to bounce Spam email using specialized email software.
