Same. I once set up a google group to forward mail to the others. Limited usefulness.

World-class was the lady who sent me pics of herself in lingerie. Not too revealing and I deleted them immediately and replied to warn her. She nearly died of embarrassment.

I'm pretty sure there are spam lists who sign me up to products, probably for some kind of referral. I join all sorts of junk.

Compounded by Google making "first.last@" = "firstlast@"

Next Gmail account is going to be a guid.
