I unsubscribed from a company’s mailing list and then they added me to a new “unsubscribers” list and spammed me again. I then unsubscribed from that list and was added to another “unsubscriber” list. At least this new unsubscriber list was labelled “new”. That makes it so much better. /s*
In the US at least that is very much illegal, though I am going to guess this isn’t in the US.
You’d guess right. Ironically, we have great consumer protection laws here and it’s illegal here, too. But I doubt the authorities would do much without a flood of complaints.
And sadly, my Twitter/𝕏 thread with the company in private message is going nowhere. 😿
I mean, I would still file a complaint with whatever relevant government agency, worst that could happen is that things stay the same I figure.
My exact plan if the the Twitter/𝕏 thread goes nowhere.

Don’t contact the company. They’re breaking the law, and they know it. Report straight to the regulating authority.
Also illegal in the EU.
