Various vendor messages

[Deleted member 1393]

Why is it that when I make a purchase with a vendor other vendors start messaging me ? For example Amopure then I wake up to 2 other vendors messaging me on Whatsapp. I noticed this a couple of times. Not sure how they are connected.

I stick to email and haven't experienced this yet. I did make the mistake of entering my email for a random peptide website to see their price list after seeing a FB ad for a Labor Day buy one, get two free promotion. I was just curious what the price came out to, as it didn't say. Yesterday, I received 25 spam messages from totally different companies all about glucose strips and various diabetes websites. That was not a coincidence. Lesson learned: Never enter your email to see a price list, either.

Just make a protonmail (does not require a phone number or any information to make an account) for the purpose of downloading things and doing orders, then you won't get all the spam in your main email

What's happening is quite simple, your email is added to a shared list or sold. It's quite common
