People are fed-up with what is being called "second degree spam", e-mails from companies about products they are not interested in, says a survey.
Even if people signed up to be sent news or offers, NCorp's survey says over half see them as irrelevant spam.

From December, EU rules to tackle spam will force companies to ask customers for permission before sending e-mails.

As a result, second degree spam will "worsen", says NCorp's Martin Blackburn, damaging consumer loyalty.
