I grew up in a suburb not far from Boston, and my parents still live in the house I grew up in. Somehow some real estate database got my email in it associated with my parents address, so I occasionally get emails addressed to my father asking if he's interested in selling the house, which is amusing since my email is in the format lastname.firstname.middleinitial@<provider>, and my father's first name is not the same as my own or even beginning with my middle initial (not that even a human would necessarily come to the conclusion that the data was wrong, let alone an email bot). It sounds like this might have been coming from a private investor like the article describes. I sometimes joke with my parents that they should hope the offer isn't too good or I might take them up on it someday!
