Bombarding with unwanted e-mail is a form of online harassment known as 'spamming'. Spamming involves sending large amounts of unsolicited e-mails to an individual or group of people. It is often used by malicious actors to spread malware, phishing scams, and other malicious content. Spam can also be used to advertise products or services. Spam is a major problem for internet users, as it can clog up inboxes and cause disruption to online activities.
