Every other minute, there's a new email message from Tagged.com with a subject "[Your Friend Name] has tagged you! :)".
There's a link at the bottom of the email message that says "Click to unsubscribe" but even when you unsubscribe, "TaggedMail Invites" will continue to flood your inbox.
Though you can mark the email message as Spam, that won't affect Tagged since the message is sent using the email address of the person who has invited you.
Therefore, the possible solution is to block TaggedMail using a GMail filter and trash all the emails automatically. Here's one filter that you can use:
When a message arrives that has the words has Tagged you! :) in the subject and "unsubscribe from Tagged" in the message body, delete it. Simply blocking all email with the text Tagged.com may result in false positives.

I wonder who like to give their Gmail username and password to them? I really pit on folks who do that!
Nice write-up Amit. h

If someone replies to the mail it will also have the text so preferably archive them in a folder and delete them after a week

What I cannot understand is that Tagged markets itself as a premier teen social networking site stating that “Tagged.com is the premier social networking destination for the Millennial Generation and an ideal place for advertisers who are trying to reach the teen market. Tagged provides a fun, safe, and exciting environment for teens to showcase their personalities and talents, and to connect with friends and meet new ones. Tagged maintains this great environment by only allowing teenagers to register on the site.”
If that is the case then why am I receiving an invite from a 51 year old Harsh from India?
I was able to search the database and their are more than teens on this site.
