Proper safety measures have been discussed many times in the past. One of these is using different email accounts for different purposes. Your personal and private email accounts that you have for your banking, financial, and private needs should never be connected to the same email address that you use for ICOs, giveaways, and stuff like that.
You can categorize your needs in different ways and have anywhere between 5-10 email accounts that should never intersect.
Yes, you are 100% right.. I use different emails now and I have up to 5 emails for different purposes because of this.
