Constant spam inbox

[lottie46]

The past couple weeks my inbox is getting full of spam - antivirus renewal notices in particular. I have “rules” set up but they’re constant now and driving me nuts. 
Can anyone at Virgin say why this has started happening again? 
Thanks

Hi lottie45, 

Thank you for your post. 

I apologise that this has been happening to you - it's not something that we could 100% confirm as to why this is happening again if I am being honest with you. All information we have on how to prevent/stop this can be found through this link: https://www.virginmedia.com/help/security/how-to-stop-spam-emails 

Cheers, 

Ryan.

Yep - I noted that that the spam was starting again a while ago and it continues to accelerate. 
you can set up filters - but if previous outbreaks are to be a model - this will go on for a few months before it virgin media has its email management update something and it’ll go away again.
