‘I got 25000 miles from my email nemesis’: People share the most clever ways to get strangers who use their email addresses to stop

People with common first and last names all deal with the issue that they have to share their names with a lot of other people around the globe. There must be thousands of people with names like John Smith or Mary Williams, and that can create a lot of issues.

One of those issues is presented in this funny petty revenge story. OP (original poster), for years, has been dealing with a person, probably with the same name as her, trying to use her email account. That person doesn't really have access to the email account, but they continuously use the address for their personal affairs, like prescriptions and memberships.

This story sparked a funny discussion in the comments of all the ways Redditors got their "email nemesis" to stop using their addresses.
