@GS,

No and if you go to their website, there is NO way to Unsubscribe or Remove or Opt-Out.

I sent them an E-mail so we shall see what happens.

Thanks,

Rick P.

Yeah, got another E-mail that I was their customer plus they gave me a password.

These folks are "nuts" as I've never purchased anything from them and never plan to !!!!!

Have you given your email to anyone else, they may have used it as a "junk" mail address to get what they want.

I use Fences but have never ever received an email from them.

What does the message header look like when you select "view message source" ?

My E-mail addresses are all over the net including my web pages and such.

Never get spam but Stardock is aimed directly at me for some reason.

May be they think I'll "Shill" for them.

Be Sure now I will NOT !!!!

I've been getting 2 a day for the past week on my main account, 'Newsletter' and 'Desktop product special offers'.

If I have to enter / register an email address, I never my main account so don't understand why this has started happening.

However, to unsubscribe, there is an unsubscribe link at the very bottom of the email. Uncheck all the boxes you supposedly 'subscribed' to

Submit and you should get this.

We will see.

Like Mike,
I did as above and 'Fingers crossed' am OK.
I used to use 'Fences' but found it did give me niggly problems,and after completely zapping anything to do with Fences,cleared up.

You could also maybe Ban the address in Mail, but then again I use the dreaded Yahoo Mail :):)

Mike,

NO JOY with your method !!!! :( :(

They flood my E-mail now.

Have routed all their stuff to "Junk Mail" folder.

They Have Become a Disreputable Company - what a shame.

Will call them directly tomorrow.

No agency in US has control or regulates this kind of corporate behavior so don't know who else to call.
