Wilson combat unwanted spam

[ron169]

I started getting them as well, figured it was from this board, but I love gun spam, hate cialis and Nigerian lottery spam!

I second the coupons idea, I also get email from WC and was doing some "window" shopping before church this morning. Sucks being broke.

You could have unsubscribed quicker than it took you to post this and insult a sponsor the entire shooting industry respects. WC is not a spammer. I look forward to WC emails and others from Midway, LaRue, Bravo Company, and others. I too get the VS emails. Guns and Gals, it's an American thing.

I have never had any dealings with them in any way. There is no possibility that I signed up for anything from them. To say they are not spammers when I received unsolicited email from them makes me think you should find out the definition of Spam. I did unsubscribe before posting this but was concerned others might be getting unsolicited email from them as well. If I had signed up for anything from them and then complained THEN I would be insulting them. Pointing out something g that they DID do cannot possibly be considered insulting. If I have offended you then I'm sorry it wasn't my intention and I do like WC producer and was contemplating a purchase from them. Please note that I am a computer server/security administrator including setting up email servers and I'm fully aware of what defines spam. My thoughts were originally was that perhaps marketing got a brilliant idea and thought no one would mind without thinking about the consequences of the poor decision to use email addresses from this forum.

Legally speaking, if you signed up for 68forums, which you did, you may have checked a box allowing emails from the forum for notifications. Once Wilson Combat bought the forum, they bought everything, which may include the ability to email those that checked those boxes

Correct except for the fact that I am religious about opting out of those, I keep a seperate email address for the rare times I can't.

Moonie,
We pulled a list, from the 68 forums software, of members that were interested in receiving more information. If somehow you got included, and you did not want further contact from the forum or WC, we apologize. I have asked our forum programmer to look for any software issue that could have migrated anyone onto that list. Not only can you opt out, if you would like to PM me your email address that you received our newsletter on, I will have our IT folks strike it from any list on our side.

Best Regards,

WilsonCombatRep

The emails or boner pills?

The emails. I don't need the pills!

[Strawdawg]

They arent just supporters and members, they own this website.

exactly! I was glad to get one from them...

[harris hawker]

I didn't know they owned the sight. I will gladly accept any email from them. Just suprised me, glad they aren't selling emails to companies or political activist. Keepem coming!Any ammo specials soon, those are the ones I'm looking for!

Anyone else suddenly start getting advertising spam from Wilson combat on the email address they use for this forum? I most certainly did not do ANYTHING to sign up for that nor did I authorize it. This makes it spam as defined by the anti-spam laws.

Yup! started showing up last week in my inbox.. And I know I did not sign up with Wilson..
I am a loyal Stag customer.
