Spammers Track Usage, Too
Spammers, never shy to exploit all possibilities, may be using tracking images, too. By downloading the tracking image you confirm that (maybe resulting in even more spam).
So how can you avoid being tracked?
- If you can tell something is spam by the subject, the sender or the recipient, don't open it at all.
- Additionally, you can configure your email client to avoid this kind of privacy infringement.
