About three years ago, I got tricked by a site called Quechup. And now it has happened again... This time the site is called ShoppyBag. I hope that I haven't "forwarded" any spam to your inbox... How do you protect yourself against this kind of spam?

What kind of tools do you use if you want to find out information about a site URL? I did a "whois" on ShoppyBag.com and it gave me the following server info.: IP 75.101.163.35. Is it hosted by Amazon?

Here is an update to my post: I learned from the thread ("Will the Shoppybag email scam be able to get my personal information from my stored emails?") on the Google help forum that you could revoke a third-party access to your email contacts by going to your personal settings and then click on the link to "Change authorized websites" and you will see a list of websites with an "Authorized Access to your Google Account."
