I am a frequent customer of Redbox (rent a movie for a dollar a day from a vending machine) since the first one popped up in Utah county some 4 or 5 years ago.
The last two or three months I've been getting emails from "Redbox" asking me to confirm my subscription. I keep deleting these messages, because there are too many people out there trying to scam people out of their personal information. Tonight I got yet another email from them and it was the last straw. So I clicked on the Unsubscribe button. The address on my browser said this: surv.cheetahmail.com, which isn't www.redbox.com...suspicious, right?
They didn't ask for my email address, just my reason for leaving. I read through a bunch of options, but none of them applied, until I got to the last one...OTHER. There was a space to leave my reason for unsubscribing. This was my reason: "Because this is NOT the real Redbox. You just hacked into Redbox and stole my email address for I don't know what reason. Leave me alone or I'll turn you into the Police."
Maybe that will get them to leave me alone.
