How to get a Fake email id in a Second
When you need is a disposable e-mail address, one that doesn't impact your inbox. Enter Mailinator,
a free and easy service that gives you a temporary, Web-accessible
e-mail address.
Here's a common hassle: You sign up for some freebie, promotion, or service that requires your e-mail address--and suddenly your inbox is deluged with ads, notifications, and other spam.

Of course,
without supplying an e-mail address, you wouldn't have been able to
sign up. Indeed, in some cases you actually need to get e-mail from the
company, if only to retrieve a registration code, coupon, or the like.
What
I love about Mailinator is that it requires no registration or setup of
any kind. You just think up an e-mail address on the fly (like when
you're staring at a Web form), tack on @mailinator.com, and then type it in. For example: conmancool@mailinator.com.
To check your e-mail, just head to the Mailinator site, enter your invented address under "Check your inbox," and then click Go.
Presto: there's your mail. There's no password required (meaning this
is a highly non-secure system, so use it only for things that don't
require absolute privacy).
The only thing I couldn't figure out from Mailinator's FAQ page
(which I highly recommend reading) is how long the mail (and accounts)
are stored. A week? Indefinitely? I'm guessing it's the latter, meaning
you should probably delete your messages when you're done with them.
You also have the option of forwarding them to your primary e-mail
account, which is handy.
This is a great little service, one that can really help cut down your inbox spam.
