Hi
Some websites simply want to have your valid email address, perhaps to send
you some information about the service from time to time, but in some cases
also just to spam you with bulk mail. To do this, they need to confirm your
address is real, and so they write to database an id and the email address,
then they send a mail to the address with the same id. When you click the
link that has the same id, they find out that the person who submitted the
email address did recieve it and clicked the link, hence it's a valid email
address. It's just that simple.
By the way, "Pls" and "thankzz"...? In future, try to avoid the
haxorz-language to keep the level a bit more professional. You'll get no
respect with "1337 5p33k" ;)
