Below is an email I received today. It's the second one of its kind on here. Has anyone else received such mail. What can be done about it. It's very annoying.

Well, thats what you get for putting your email address in plaintext on a public profile.
Any random bot crawling the internet can find it.
It's not IGP/PGI's fault.
