I have several gmail accounts and some have been set up for 2 years that I have not given the address to anybody and I have not had a single spam message in it.

The email addresses of mine that seem to have been targeted are the easier shorter ones rather than the more complicated longer ones. I think a lot of it is guess work by spammers - it costs them very little to send out billions of emails so they can afford to use such tactics.
