If you are not using active spam filters and Gmail like service and good anti spam methods to protect your inbox, your inbox will be ended of junk emails.

Most of these emails are marketing emails. India is king in online marketing and sadly mature marketer will end up sending spam mails. They manually collect emails addresses and sometimes they purchase it.

Almost 80% of total sent emails were spam and 14.8% were from India. There are reasons for it, India’s population is second largest, and it has enough resources and less awareness. So normal users end up with these junk emails.

Indonesia and Brazil are second and third respectively. In more India has third largest user base of Internet users in the web world.
