Dina: How does spam mail contain my first and last name and my home address now?
Got a few of them and it’s really freaking me out. I didn’t click in the links in the mail and I never open spam or go to compromising websites. Thanks!

Don’t worry about it. They don’t know any of your secrets. The spammers are constantly “sweeping” websites for your information. Sometimes they get it right; other times they get it wrong. You visited a website (shopping? chat?) and entered your name and address. The spammers got it. They can’t do anything with it.
Watch for any unusual activity in any forum you visit… and with your email account. Ask friends to warn you if they receive a spam from your email.
Answer by rose dThey use different tactics to get your information if they have your name they can search it on the internet to get the information. Everyone can be sought out on the internet. all you have to do is type your own name in the search engine and it will pop everything up.
Why you gonna stress it though? What is that getting you? Nothing is gonna happen its just going to give you more spam and possible more junk mail at home
