Legal Definitions - unsolicited commercial e-mail

Definition: Unsolicited commercial e-mail, also known as spam, refers to unwanted and unsolicited emails that are sent to a large number of people for commercial purposes. These emails are often sent without the recipient's consent and can be annoying and intrusive.

Examples: Some examples of unsolicited commercial e-mails include:

• An email from an unknown company promoting their products or services
• An email offering a free trial for a product or service that you did not request
• An email asking for personal information or money in exchange for a promised reward

These examples illustrate how unsolicited commercial e-mails can be unwanted and intrusive. They can clutter up your inbox and make it difficult to find important emails. They can also be a security risk if they contain links to malicious websites or ask for personal information.
