Unwanted Newsletter

pnoon · 05-14-2009, 06:45 PM

Anyone else start receiving the puff.com newsletter without ever asking for it? It seems the owner chose to arbitrarily start sending it to anyone he chose to. I asked why and did not get a reply.

Rest assured that here at Cigar Asylum your email address will not be used for unwanted and useless mailings.

Yep, I got it too.

Siebec · 05-14-2009, 06:49 PM

Yep got it here as well, and promptly "marked as spam."

elderboy02 · 05-14-2009, 06:49 PM

I got it too and I didn't sign up for it.

What a wonderful guy he is.

GolfNut · 05-14-2009, 06:49 PM

Same here. I promptly unsubscribed from all future mailings. Actually hated to go there to even do that. Made me feel unclean.

Holy heck, I decided to watch the Pete Johnson video and you have to watch an ad before you get to the video

14holestogie · 05-14-2009, 06:53 PM

Yep, hit my inbox too.

hotreds · 05-14-2009, 06:59 PM

Yes- went to my Spam folder- I guess Yahoo does know some things!

I didn't get it, but I may know why.

Back in October, I switched my profile to be a 15 y.o., among other things, just to see if he was paying attention. I also tried to delete the "optional email address" which it wouldn't let me do, but I did change it to an invalid one. I can't log on and use the forums until I fix the email, but I'm not planning to log on and he has an invalid email for me.

Not that I'm suggesting anything...

Siebec · 05-14-2009, 07:19 PM

Ahh he took the thread down.

pnoon · 05-14-2009, 07:19 PM

He has now removed the thread.
Unbelievable.

There is supposed to be a way to unsubscribe at the bottom of the email but there's no link to use. No cheers for unsolicited emails.
