 * Thank you for the responses. Appreciated.
 * It is not a random or non existent email address. It is a valid email address
   being used to register on 1000’s of different websites which results in the recipient
   getting 1000’s of emails sent because of these registrations being done by some
   form of bot.
 * Below is just three examples of websites. They all have a /my-account registration
   form that simply anyone can just enter an email address into and they email address
   will be registered and receive emails from the website.

 * The emails are legitimately coming from the various websites, so the sender is
   indeed valid. It is the fact that some form of bot / coding is just maliciously
   registering email addresses in the my-account forms which then generates the 
   emails to email address used. The recipient has not gone and registered to 100’
   s of websites in one minute. The flaw appears to me that all these WordPress/
   WooCommerce pages simply allow entering an email address and that’s it…you registered.

 * The issue is I cannot make 100’s or even 1000’s of web developers put the proper
   measures in place to prevent malicious / fake registrations on their WordPress/
   WooCommerce forms.
