Blind Carbon Copy - An anti-spam precaution

Usually in your email account, you will find different options to send messages:

To: Principal recipients

Cc: Carbon copy to people can be interested or related with the principal message.

Bcc: Blind carbon copy to send the same message to multiple recipients, hiding their e-mail addresses from each other.

Usually BBC is used in mailing lists, But WHY?

For one side is courtesy, this is a sensible anti-spam precaution because it avoids making a long list of e-mail addresses available to all the recipients. To and CC field allow users to see all recipients address which can be inadequate when you are sending message on behalf of a business or organization, it may be especially important to keep lists of clients, members or associates confidential.

Spammers and email-borne viruses take advantage of people who don’t delete long email lists in the messages. It’s important to remove addresses of previous recipients when you forward an email.

To reduce the risk to be part of a spammer list, encourage people who forward messages to you to use BCC. Besides, you can use a specialized software Spamjadoo www.spamjadoo.com to avoid irrelevant messages and more privacy for you and your business.

Almost all emails servers have BBC option. But If you cannot BBC without write an address in TO, you can write your own address, it will help you to confirm that the message was sent and hide your recipients ID.

Internet is a free and open resource but we also should take some precautions like in the real life.

How to protect your system

1. Keep your web browsers and operating system up to date.
2. Use security software tools as your first line of defense.
3. Use strong passwords or strong authentication technology to help protect your personal information.
4. Do not open e-mail attachments from an unknown, suspicious, or untrustworthy source.
5. Back up your files frequently.
6. Exercise caution when downloading files from the Internet. Make sure that the Web site is legitimate and reputable. Verify that an anti-virus program has checked the files on the download site. If you have any doubts, don't download the file at all. If you download software from the Internet, be especially vigilant of free software, which often carries adware or other potentially unwanted content along with it. Always read the privacy policies and end-user license agreements (EULAs) for software you install, regardless of the source. Be especially wary of screensavers, games, browser add-ons, peer-to-peer (P2P) clients, and any downloads claiming to be “cracked” or free versions of expensive applications, such as Adobe® PhotoShop® or Microsoft® Office. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Source: Macfee
7. Do not open messages or click on links from unknown users in your instant messaging program.
8. Delete chain e-mails and other spam from your inbox.

The New Zealand Police has urged its citizens to apply the following formula to prevent being scammed. Whenever you are solicited by a request online to reveal any personal or financial details, imagine the same thing being asked of you by a stranger on the street. Would you reveal it to him?

Then there is no reason to treat the online request differently.

These days I have received scam emails to my free email account. I want to share it and warn people about it:

• From: sis_jennylee@yahoo.com.hk

After going through your information over the internet i decided to contact you for friendship and assistance for distribution of my inheritance towards charity. My name is Jenny Lee; I am a dying woman who has decided to donate what I have for the good work of charity. I am 60 years old and I was diagnosed for breast cancer for about 2 years now.

And begin with a “good” intentions and a sad story…mmm could you believe it?

If the email purports to be a legitimate charity or organization then always check the charity's contact details on the web (never rely on the email details) and contact them directly if you wish to make a donation. Even, bad people use Haiti earthquake like a hook to ask for financial "help" . It is sad how they take advantage of this kind of situation.
