Did you know this trick?

Would they not just sell your email address after removing all plus-addresses?

Some sites will not allow the + in the email address.

But what if you want to send an email with the + email as the sending address?

You can also add a period anywhere in the email as google doesn’t read them.

Awesome!!!!!

I knew this already🙄

I knew this years ago. I also know a lot of websites won’t accept plus-style addresses, or just trim them before storage, because it’s easy to spot and filter out. So I stopped using the feature a long time ago. Still works for smaller purposes, but don’t try and fool the big corporations with it.

Brilliant!🎉

Dude…. You ROCK! Cheers from the UK!

its true aliasing is a thing

Excellent! Thank you.

I don't use emails anymore.... that was back in the MySpace days. Now I just use my phone and dont answer my calls.

You are such a chameleon 😂

Omg this is brilliant

OMGGGGGGGGG

Thanks piratesoftware

thank you

Nah, I knew about this

I'll bet you I did know that.

Those free "new customer" promos are going through the roof after this!

😳

Very usefull information. Thanks for sharing. Love and respect from the Kurds pf Kurdistan

He's wild as hell for Farmers only. 😂😂

My Computer Tips folder is full of your videos 😂

now what's the infinite sending account hack?
anyone? Buehler? anyone?

dude thats genius

Doesn't work on Yahoo.

I knew this.

at a company i worked at we just remove those from Gmail... lol

Literally everyone knows this

Bots know this already and deleted anything from the + onwards

This is so valuable

Just to add, in case you ever see this comment, because it might make you smile to know, as someone who still uses her first email, Hotmail, I have probably the most spam of anyone with email
So my thank you is coming from a two decade long battle with spam

What do we do with this information? Once we find a site that sold our data, is there anything we can do?

A decade ago this could have worked, not nowadays

No!!!! Are you kidding me? I have been a power user since 1985 or so. NEVER knew this + sign thing! Damn!

A lot of sites I try to use that trick on reject it

This was one I actually did know!

Unless the developers filter part out which is super easy.

Thanks! I knew it already. I also sign up under the store's name. So Joshua Walton, Joshua Schnucks, Joshua BestBuy, Joshua Lowes. Stuff like that.

My dog threatened to alert the authorities if i don't stop trying to train it to rob a bank. What should i do?

I have been working in the Technology field for more than a quarter century and I am still learning something new everyday; however, this is NOT one of those things.

BTW, some sites won't allow you to use that trick for creating user names. When that happens it will claim that the email is invalid. Research services that hides and forwards your emails or use the built in features on your iPhone and Android.

Damn reuploading videos? Dude must be out of tricks you didn't know

For every trick, there's a counter.

using System; class Program { static void Main() { Console.WriteLine("Enter an email address:"); string email = Console.ReadLine().Trim(); string result = IgnorePlusTag(email); Console.WriteLine("Modified email: " + result); } public static string IgnorePlusTag(string email) { string[] parts = email.Split('@'); if (parts.Length != 2) { return email; // Return original if no '@' or multiple '@' symbols } string localPart = parts[0]; string domain = parts[1]; string[] localParts = localPart.Split('+'); string baseLocal = localParts[0]; return baseLocal + "@" + domain; } }

You're SO BOSS,BOSS!

Bank robbery instructions xD

The tech doctor

I didn't know.
Now I know... You freakin' genius!
