740027807yI once had a webhoster who linked to my email on the default error pages. It wasn't even a clear ”Contact me“ link, instead a part of the error message was a link. I only found out after a friend accidentally clicked on it and a email window popped up.

C0D4681387yIf your domain register doesn’t hide your details it’s easy to identify.

Replace example 😏 -
Get yourself a whois guard subscription. You can buy it with your domain registrar for 2~4$ per year. Your info won't be publicly available. Saves a lot of spam.
Also, to get the origin of the spam, if you have a Gmail account there's a trick:
When registering, use this as your email:
Myactualemail+site@gmail.com
Replace "myactualemail" with whatever is supposed to come before the "@" and "site" with the domain you're registering on. That way you'll see who leaked your email :p -
lxmcf204107y@FMashiro I think I'll have to, never had this issue with my old site though, lucky the provider is from the same state as me so it's easy to contact them!
