Yeah, I bought some Chinese batteries a while ago and they sold/leaked my info to a dozen other scam companies. None of which I was able to unsubscribe from. Just ticked a box to disable the email and that was the end of that. If I hadn't, they would have been blowing up my inbox for the rest of eternity with no way to stop it or know where it came from.
