Sounds like the Xfinity emails I receive. They end with "You cannot unsubscribe from these emails because they are account related".
The problem is, I don't have an account. I don't even live in an area where I could have an account. I've contacted them multiple times and they cannot find my email address in their system. They've escalated it, had engineering teams look into it, etc. Nobody knows how/why I'm getting emails.
If I was in a bad mood, I'd report them to the FTC -- the fines of $16k per email would be an enormous amount by now since this has been happening for 8 years.
But, I mention it because some of us here create system that send emails and we need to remember to always create a way for the user to self delete or at least some kind of audit system for finding that email address in a system later.
Oh ya, for about a year I've been getting someone's electricity bill from India too. Again, there's no way to unsubscribe, and worse I don't speak the language so my attempts to contact them have made no progress. Thankfully, it's easy to create email rules to dump these emails before I even see them.
