I assume that using a fake email will work? Or just a spam account.

Ha, the worst nightmare of these marketing products. Fake data.
"Look we have 1 million trackable leads!"
"Um...they are @zoo.com addresses" -
@Breffni-Potter They have to expect that.

You likely have to verify the email to use it.

@StrongBad - It was hilarious, a few guys were talking about how you can get a 5TB backup by doing exactly that at Spiceworld.

That's silly since they said that they were not monitoring it and they were just trusting you to only use 1TB as it is. So going through that effort and tainting their database to get more than the allotted amount doesn't seem to serve any purpose. They could just use more than 1TB anyway since it is the honour system.

The type of people to do this generally don't care, they were fairly vocal about it yesterday. I just find that mentality so funny, their first reaction is how to cheat the system.
