Fake Internet Details

Leto · #1 01-19-2005, 08:11 PM

Do you give out fake internet details, as the title suggests? For certain things, (ie when I was on neopets and you sign up with things to get neopoints) I give out fake details purely because I dont want to recieve junk mail letters as well as junk mail emails. Post your fake details, or sum them up...

You can . . . do that?

I haven't done that with anything like that, but I did one thing when I got Download Accelerator Plus. It wanted me to put in my email address, so I just put I_am@a_House.com, for the same reason, I don't want (more) junk (e)mail!

I don't really sign up for many things that what addresses, but when the new GameFAQs account asked me to do one I said I live somewhere on 'FakeAddress Street'.

Only problem is that most site make you give a real address so that you can get a confirmation email. So I have a second email address that I use just for that situation and every day I go in and clear out the spam.

123 Fake Street

Yes, original ol' 123 Fake St... I'm suprised that they dont read any of these.
Yes, TheRaisin, it is done all the time.
For those comformation emails, I just use other accounts. Or if I don't care, I just put iamafishiamafishiamafish@youareafish.fish.net .

Yeah, I do that for sites like that, but with DAP it was halfway during the installation when it asks things like your name, company, and email address. Since it wasn't actually used for anything (important), I just put the afore mentioned email address.

I think the question should be who HASN'T done that at one time or another.

Actually, as luck would have it I was installing DAP just yesterday. And yes, I did put in asdasdeasda@adgadfasgta.com
