Rate of Spam Mails is Dropping

Who thought the share of notaries in search of lost relatives eligible for receiving significant inheritance, doctors bragging about their organ enlargement skills as well as Nigerian princes who just need a couple of thousand euro in order to liquify their immense fortune is ever decreasing? Even though it might be conceived differently, the amount of spam in our mailboxes is getting less month by month as a study by Kaspersky Lab found. Whilst almost two thirds of all e-mail traffic consisted of spam in 2014, by March of this year, only half of all mails which were sent via the World Wide Web are considered to be Spam. According to Kaspersky the United States still are the biggest hub for spam with 13,21 percent of all junk mails originating from there
