Great Escape π
I use it to avoid spam.
Maybe I have been living under a rock,
but I've only recently discovered this.
A few months back I used it for the first time.
And now I regularly use it.
Iβm talking about Disposable Emails.
Or in other terms, a temporary email address.
Did you know about this?
If your answer is No, then read on.
When I researched to write this newsletter, I got to know I was actually living under a rock.
There are hundreds of videos already created about this.
But it's alright!
It's never too late.
Tell me in details.
A temporary disposable email address lets you receive emails without disclosing your permanent email address.
It functions as a unique, temporary email address that only stays active for a limited time.
Think of it as OTP.
These email addresses go by various names like disposable emails, fake emails, anonymous emails, burner emails, and throwaway emails.
Alright, but is it actually useful?
It's great for enhancing your online security.
But personally, I mainly use it for one major advantage: to avoid spam.
Whenever I need to create an account on a website or service that I'm unlikely to use more than once, I use a temporary email.
While there may be other temporary email providers out there, I've only used Temp Mail.
Feel free to explore other options.
The best part? Temp Mail is 100% free, with no sign-ups or hassle.
It's user-friendly, too.

Is it safe to use such services?
I know you're not that stupid to use a temporary email for any confidential details.
I mean, I hope you're not.
These email addresses are perfect for sign-ups where you need access without sharing your personal data.
I also hope you wonβt use these emails for anything illegal.
Chalo, thank you so much for reading π§ Mindful Scroll.
Talk to you next Sunday at 10 AM.
Cheers!
