Default Increase in spam

Never got much spam in my 2 main accounts and now I am getting quite a good deal. I don't use either addresses for anything online and its only family and friends. Anyone notice this or is it just a single unrelated incident.

I've noticed it as well.

It is definitely not a single unrelated incident.

This has occured to me in like the past... week.

I'm getting stuff from Clear Channel and other Ticket-Services trying to get me to purchase tickets to all sorts of shows. Most of which aren't even in my area.
