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

    ^ THIS

    Be advised, if you aren't already aware, the spam/phishing emails that emanate from any other place than legitimate verifiable email addresses (which wouldn't be spam/phissing in the first place) will not actually unsubscribe you from getting more spam/phishing email, they are honey traps for you to keep giving the spammers/hackers more personal information.

    It's this one man's opinion, they are garnering our email addresses and personal browsing preferences from web browser add ons/extensions which are either compromised or are purposefully selling our browsing data.

    Email is broken all across the web from every major Email service provider, and it's only gotten ordinates worse in the last 12 months. In order to stop this so far, the major email service providers would have to threaten each and every pop/imap/exchange exit server owner and isp, which up to this point they've been unwilling to do, because it would mean a great many tens of millions of innocent accounts, providers, isp's would be caught up in the crackdown, breaking the internet

    Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

    They have no solutions, no solution is coming, save yourselves, trust no email.

    I am also being inundated by email from Temu. Impossible to block as they use a picture in the body of the email, use special character and also send on my behalf so can't block email address or word etc.

    Nuisance!

    I have the same problem. I have reported as phishing, spam,blocked etc but they still keep on coming. The same for boocasino which again I have never interacted with but just appeared. Sometimes I get 20 emails. I need to know how to stop this.
