Long time back I used to use a spam email whenever I needed one. Then services started declining emails from those services, so I made a temp Gmail I used for everything. But I’m not comfortable with how much I use that.

    Sign up for a domain at a registrar and get hosted email. Setup a catchall address (as in anything @yourcomain.com gets delivered. Make up addresses as needed. By setting to [email protected] each time you know which companies sold your info.

      That’s what I do with Google Domains.

      I’ll just add heavy emphasis to properly configure this, because otherwise anyone can use your domain as a catch-all host.

      Which is how scammers hijack domains for sending spam and other content.

        I think you’re thinking of an open relay, not a catchall mailbox.
