Then they sign up for an account with your email address. Each will send you a confirmation email, asking you to confirm your address. Also, this process is repeated on as many unprotected sites as the script can find. The term Email Bombing or Email Bombing; it can also refer to flooding an email server with too many emails. In an attempt to overwhelm the server and disable it. But that's not the goal here; it would be a challenge to cut down on the modern email accounts used. Meanwhile, Google or Microsoft email servers, anyway. So instead of a denial of service (DOS) attack; against the email servers you are using. Also, the flood of messages

It inspects the flow of data from the Internet to the system to decide which should be allowed and which should be restricted. The purpose of an antivirus program is to detect, scan, prevent, and remove harmful programs that can compromise your computer. Typically, a firewall works at the network protocol level to protect public and private networks from unwanted intrusions. Setting up a firewall has its benefits, but it also has its drawbacks. It can only prevent unauthorized access betwe
