An influx of spam is the number one reason why Americans change their email addresses so often. There is nothing better than an inbox that is completely spam-free, although inevitably that can change very quickly. A new study from Symantec has determined that 90% of all emails are spam! One way that many email providers attempt to cut down on spam is via CAPTCHA, which attempts to differentiate between human and computer users. However, most of the email provider’ versions of CAPTCHA are broken. Many times computers can read them better than a human. TeleSign provides an excellent alternative to CAPTCHA by requiring human users to register their accounts with a verified phone number. Websites can then limit the number of accounts associated with each phone number. A novel way to prevent bulk registrations without frustrating valuable customers.
