Sumo Logic sales once sent me a targeted email asking if I needed help getting the most out of my AWS S3 Load Balancer logs. The creepy part is I just created an S3 bucket the previous day that had the strings “load balancer” and “logs”. They must be scanning S3 bucket names for key words and maintain or pay for a list of AWS account id mappings to likely owners.

But I’d also guess your browser history in the lead up to / around the creation of those buckets would also indicate that you were in the process of managing load balancer logs. Free dev content exists to educate / onboard to product. It’s utilised in exactly this manner to determine what & when a developer is trying to achieve. And then sell them on suitable solutions.
