Okay - since there are so many computer-literate folks here, I figured this was a good place for my (basic) question:

Lately, I've been getting almost daily "fishing" (is that spelled right?) emails. Never had 'em up until they started a few days ago.

Can a "bad guy" do anything to me if all he he knows is my email address? As long as I just trash the bogus emails, do I have anything to worry about? I'd rather not change my email address because of all the entities I'd have to notify.

Any tips/thoughts/suggestions?

EDIT: I forgot - I've got an Apple computer, in case that makes a difference...
