What is "Spam"?
If you have been online long enough, you've no doubt received a number of "junk" emails. Some take the shape of "Make Money Fast" schemes. Others promise exciting new products or services, often amounting to nothing more than scams asking you to send money to a random address. Still others simply occupy space in your mailbox, asking you to forward chain letters around the world or visit a particular Web site.

In the Internet community, unsolicited commercial email is called Spam. And Spam is more than annoying to Internet users; it also seriously affects the efficiency of the network and servers through which mail is delivered. That’s because Spammers take advantage of the low cost of email by sending hundreds of thousands or even millions of email solicitations at a time. Spam attacks consume large amounts of bandwidth, clog email boxes, and waste email readers´ time.

Often times, Spammers sign up for an account with a service provider, and send Spam until their provider terminates their account, at which time they painlessly move on to another service provider. SingaporeWebsite.net protects all of our customers from Spam by charging for Spam so that Spammers will acquire a significant financially liability that doesn’t disappear even if service is terminated. While this may sound like acceptance of Spam, our true goal is to eliminate any economic incentive Spammers may have - and thus prevent Spammers from being our customers, even for a short while.
