Who's Teaching This Separate Email for Spammers Tactic?
So one guy subscribed with let's say his email is sam@(hisdomain.com). FOr the second time this year, I've gotten an angry unsubscribe telling me they set up a separate email JUST to see who's selling their name and their account for me was spammed.
I know 2 per year is a low number...but I'm just curious how these people are getting spammed when I'm not selling or swapping their names?
I haven't ever sold a name, never joined the JVs to build lists and swap names - nothing!
The only other people who have access to his email would be aweber or his own hosting company, right?
I'd just like to figure this out so I don't get these kinds of emails in the future:
"I set up separate email addresses to see who is sending me spam and I had never checked your account because I thought you were a nice person who wouldn't sell their list to spammers. Imagine my surprise when I did check and found a bunch of spam coming through the email account I had set up for your email. I was wrong, you are a fat slime and not a very good writer."
Especially when I didn't do anything to deserve it....and I don't want people thinking I'm doing this, even if they unsubscribe without a rant, either.
Obviously this "set up a separate email" tactic is faulty because I know I'm not doing it, and they're still getting emails.
