Hi Me,

I’d like you join me for an exclusive customer-only Sneak Preview on November 5th. At this live demo and Q& A, we’ll unveil the product and cover really important information to see if it’s the right fit for your organization.

Please take a moment to Register Now.

Best regards,

Dor

The problem? This company has no relationship with me, and we are not customers of theirs! But it’s good to know that we’re valued. So I follow the process to unsubscribe from their list, and then this happens:


Hi Me,
I got the notification below that you registered a spam complaint and removed yourself from all groups in our system. If you wish to not receive particular notifications you can remove yourself from a group by managing your profile settings.  If you unsubscribe from all we cannot send you any notifications from our system at all.  We take spam complaints very seriously as we do not ever want to spam our customers but we do want to keep them informed of important information. We apologize if this was sent in error.
Best Regards
Dor


The problem? We’re still not customers of theirs! But at least we got an apology about the error.
