Thousands of computers are hacked through this method. This  research comes up with  a ray of light on what “spam attack” means, its processes of hacking, methods of tackling and how does it affects our computers. This research is done by Muhammad Auwal Ahmad as an academic work. Introduction Spamming  is the use of messaging systems to send an unsolicited message ( spam ), especially advertising, as well as sending messages repeatedly on the same website.
