These both terms refer to e-mail but there is small difference between Spam and Scam Phishing. Both involve people into buying some products or using some service and both bring harm and inconvenience to users.

How do you deal with them and have anybody ever experienced spam or scam?

Spam is unsolicited email from promoters who go hell freak ..
whereas spam phishing is spurious people trying to steal
credibility and misuse it and cause great difficulty...
Must see the email in full and links opened must be checked
whether its from the genuine site...
