Spam refers to unsolicited and often irrelevant messages sent over the internet, typically via email. These messages can clutter inboxes and may contain advertisements, promotions, or even malicious content. The primary goal of spam is to reach a large audience without the recipient's consent. In addition to email, spam can also occur in other forms, such as social media posts, text messages, and comments on websites. Many users find spam annoying, and various tools and filters are available to help reduce its prevalence and protect users from potential scams or harmful links.
