Hate those messages from HSN and QVC

that come in your own email that says

"we know U were looking at this" then, try to entice you to come back and buy it.

 

can't even look at somethig on their website without them tracking you and letting you know they know you were checking on something.

 

Creepy and threatening. I erase history and cookies daily and run spyware deletion programs.

I've been getting them lately too.  It is creepy.

I recommend a trash email for such junk.  You never have to log in and they can just mail themselves silly.  Even keep a more obscure one for all the Yahoo’s in life.

I get those emails from lots of companies so swipe-delete-forget,  its not worth my time to be concerned about it.

No.  It's an option in your email. 

To say it's creepy, threatening, or harrassing is just ridiculous.  I get them ALL the time from any place I shop and freely provided my email.  It's business.

Unless you use a private browser, companies are going to use tracking cookies.

 

I don't even bother to open them.  Just hit delete.  Nothing creepy about it.

I agree, I get them form lots of sites, just hit delete. Every so often I will get one that offers an incentive, like if you complete your order you will get $5 off or a % off.
