McAfee’s Great Spam Experiment, Unplugged

50 participants from around the globe volunteered to get spammed for one month. Men received an average of 76.6 spams per day, while women got about 60.6 a day. Many of the spam messages were phishing emails or contained malware or links to malware-ridden sites. Financial spam was the No. 1 type of junk email, and Chase.com was the most popular phishing email. The U.S. got the most spam, with 23,233, and Brazil got 14,856.”]
