... along with our email addresses.

If you tell your credit card company they can't sell your name, they won't do it. In other words - opt out whenever possible. I stopped getting a lot of spam emails when I started doing that.

Whenever you get spam emails, immediately "unsubscribe" and they have to take you off their list.

Just sayin'
