I am getting Emails From "Temu." and I Have No Idea What They Are

I am familiar with Temu, although I don't use it, have never made an account, signed up, or interacted with it in any way whatsoever

this started today, where I keep getting emails in my Inbox from a sender called "Temu." (I've not opened any of the emails to look at the other email to see if it's legit or not). I've gotten 3 in total, which I've all deleted

the first 2 had a description: "You have won an Temu pallets". first came in at 11am, second came in at 3pm

the most recent one either came in at 6pm or 7pm, I forgot to make note, but it had a description along the lines of: "RE: confirm your receipt"

I have blocked the sender every single time on each of these emails but it hasn't made a difference. if the third email came in at 7pm, then if I'm not mistaken that's 4 hours apart between each email

is anyone else receiving these or...why do I keep getting these? is it more likely that it's a spam email if I've blocked the sender and it keeps working around it? it keeps coming to my Inbox, not Spam

    And another’s just come through. Now gone from ‘@Temu’ to ‘TemuUK.’

    Apologies for running commentary.

    Same here! Deluged with Temu emails. In the previous weeks it was Oral B and air fryers!

    The Microsoft spam filter is sadly not fit for purpose, but to be fair that is because the spammers keep using different email addresses. I have also forwarded to Temu's spam email address, but that the problem still persisted

    What has helped is to use the "sweep" option and pick a keyword, such as in this case, Temu, and then choose whether to sweep to junk or deleted folder - at least for me this option keeps the muck out of my inbox and then I delete/clear it all out once a week or the system does that automatically.

    The solution to that is pretty simple:

    create a new rule with:

    • Every mail with the Subject from 'Temu' move to bin.

    done.

    as easy as.

    And as always, DO NOT use the unsubscribe on such mails, since this will tell them that you actually read their emails, just an invitation for them to send you more garbage.
