What is a spamtrap (brief intro)?
A spamtrap is an email address used to detect and block spammers. It is not owned by a real person and never signs up for mailing lists, so any message sent to it indicates poor list hygiene or suspicious behavior.
It is like a decoy ship left adrift to catch those who attack without verifying their targets.
