- eGrabber doesn’t provide email IDs. eGrabber just provides a tool (just like IE & Firefox) for the users to perform Internet research.
- The software doesn’t generate numerous permutations to find email IDs. It either finds the email ID of the person you are searching for or finds email IDs of coworkers and intelligently projects the most dominant email pattern.
- Projected email IDs are clearly mentioned and the users are aware of how those email IDs were obtained.
- eGrabber doesn’t recommend customers to send bulk emails.
- Don't use false or misleading header information. Your "From," "To," "Reply-To," and routing information - including the originating domain name and email address - must be accurate and identify the person or business who initiated the message.
- Don't use deceptive subject lines. The subject line must accurately reflect the content of the message.
- Identify the message as an ad. The law gives you a lot of leeway in how to do this, but you must disclose clearly and conspicuously that your message is an advertisement.
- Tell recipients where you're located. Your message must include your valid physical postal address. This can be your current street address, a post office box you've registered with the U.S. Postal Service, or a private mailbox you've registered with a commercial mail receiving agency established under Postal Service regulations.
- Tell recipients how to opt out of receiving future email from you. Your message must include a clear and conspicuous explanation of how the recipient can opt out of getting email from you in the future. Craft the notice in a way that's easy for an ordinary person to recognize, read, and understand. Creative use of type size, color, and location can improve clarity. Give a return email address or another easy Internet-based way to allow people to communicate their choice to you. You may create a menu to allow a recipient to opt out of certain types of messages, but you must include the option to stop all commercial messages from you. Make sure your spam filter doesn't block these opt-out requests.
- Honor opt-out requests promptly. Any opt-out mechanism you offer must be able to process opt-out requests for at least 30 days after you send your message. You must honor a recipient's opt-out request within 10 business days. You can't charge a fee, require the recipient to give you any personally identifying information beyond an email address, or make the recipient take any step other than sending a reply email or visiting a single page on an Internet website as a condition for honoring an opt-out request. Once people have told you they don't want to receive more messages from you, you can't sell or transfer their email addresses, even in the form of a mailing list. The only exception is that you may transfer the addresses to a company you've hired to help you comply with the CAN-SPAM Act.
- Monitor what others are doing on your behalf. The law makes clear that even if you hire another company to handle your email marketing, you can't contract away your legal responsibility to comply with the law. Both the company whose product is promoted in the message and the company that actually sends the message may be held legally responsible.

eGrabber builds lists from publicly available information on the web. You should treat our leads, same as those coming from manual research.
We don’t recommend you to load eGrabber leads directly into email systems that require leads to be opt-in.
Lists from any automation tool such as eGrabber should be considered cold call lists, and must be nurtured accordingly.

eGrabber email rating scale shows how confident we are that the email is correct. A higher rating indicates we are more confident about the emails appended.
Technically, what each of the rating means:
- 5 Star : When the exact email IDs are found on the Internet and we have additional proof that we got the right person at the right company
- 4 Star : When the email IDs are found on the Internet and the email IDs matches the given input name & company name
- 3 Star : When the email IDs of the persons are not found on the Internet, but there are enough of email IDs from the same email domain to predict the pattern
- 2 Star : When the email IDs are found but the email IDs match only name (but not company) / When the exact email IDs of the persons are not found on the Internet and only a few email IDs with inconsistent email patterns of that domain are found
- 1 Star : When the exact email ID of the person are not found on the Internet and displays the default projected email. (The Fi-Ln Pattern)
Based on our internal studies, we recommend the following:
5 Star, 4 Star, 3 Star
- You can use these emails for marketing
- The 5 & 4 Star emails have higher email delivery rate
- The 3 Star ones have higher response rate from prospects. This is because those with 3-star email ids have not been spammed by marketers who scrape email ids off the Internet, and you might be the first to reach them!
2 Star
- Use these emails in the case of last ditch effort to contact the prospect; in case there are no other email IDs available at that company and you definitely want to try breaking into the account
- eGrabber guarantees the product will perform Internet research at least 3x faster than expert researcher and that the overall accuracy will be as good or better than what they produce.
- If someone's email ID is on the Internet, our tool has a 95%+ chance of finding it.
- If someone's email ID is not on the Internet, our tool makes an intelligent analytical guess based on emails of co-workers it finds. Our base assumption is that the email ID pattern would be similar to the prominent pattern the company has used for the co-workers. We expect our guesses to be 3x more accurate than a random guess.
Reasons for Accuracy Errors:
- eGrabber does not have a database from where it gets contact information. eGrabber conducts Internet research & relies on the information provided online as being accurate. So the results are only as good as the data that is published.
- eGrabber always provides the source from where it finds emails and marks the data as being FOUND. Even Found emails can bounce, some of the reasons being the person is no longer with the company or the company no longer exists. eGrabber does not check to see if that person is still with the company.
- One should expect atleast a third of the projected emails to bounce. That is because that person we projected for might not be with the company, they may not have an email ID, the company may not be consistent in the way it creates email IDs for the person.
- Our software clearly indicates which contact information was found on the Internet & which email IDs were projected. As a customer it is upto you to choose if you want to use only the found emails or both found and projected.
The answer to following one question, almost always determines if you would embrace projected emails:
Which of these two lists do you prefer to work with?
If you answered you prefer the 50% connect-list, because you can reach more people, then you will love our projected email feature. Generally for the aggressive marketers, the risks outweigh the rewards.
If you said, I prefer to only work with 100% certain emails, then you would use only the emails FOUND on the Internet by our software
Projection Accuracy
The accuracy of the projected emails is dependent on how consistent companies you prospect are in issuing similar IDs to all their employees. Most companies like to follow a pattern such as [email protected] or [email protected] and so on for such companies, the projection works well.
In some companies, employees are allowed to figure out their own email-id, When projecting email-id of these companies, there is a high probability that the projection would be wrong.
Better ROI on Projected
Your chance of response on a projected email is 2x to 3x higher than the found by going after the projected emails. That's because you are reaching people your competitors are not.
These projected emails are hidden. Your competition gave up & you didn’t. So get rewarded.
Our projected emails are 2x more accurate than an in-house researcher
If you have an in-house researcher, we can guarantee our projection is going to be 2x better than their projection. That's because we sample 10x more pages to get a email pattern
Be Safe, be like everyone else
If your goal was 100% accuracy, you would want to throw out all NO-EMAIL-FOUND leads. And just stick to FOUND.
Else, be Prudent, Stand a chance of winning High
If you are willing to be Business prudent and take a calculated risk, You would use the 4* projected for 50% accuracy and 3* projected for 33% accuracy.

Validate E-mail allows you to verify the validity of an E-mail address. eGrabber uses 3rd party sites to validate the E-mail addresses and simply passes on to you the information provided by these sites.
eGrabber, as a matter of convenience, allows you to automatically validate up to 10 email addresses per day.
Alternatively, you can also visit any of the sites listed below to check if an E-mail address is still valid, provided the host company allows such validation. (Please note that eGrabber is not affiliated in any way with any of these sites.)
Not all sites allow you to validate if an E-mail address exists in their system or not. So if the system does not say it is a valid E-mail address, it does not really mean that the E-mail address does not exist.
