Can’t unsubscribe…..
Jul 24, 2022 12:34:14 #
Is anyone else getting this type survey poll? I’ve been getting this for about 3 months and have been unsubscribing every time I receive one to no avail, sometimes I receive three or four a day. They say I’m receiving this because I subscribed for it, which I never did, and if I no longer wish to receive this type survey to just “UNSUBSCRIBE”

You can be best served by just ignoring these spams. Do not key on anything other than delete. On some of them, you can block them with a filter in your e-mail.
Anytime you respond, even to "unsubscribe" (You did not "subcribe" in the first place!), you let the spammer know that their stabs "in the dark" are being opened and garner reactions. The spammers just sell the lists to other spammers and/or use them for their other bots for contact.
You are not obligated in any way to respond to these spams!

I NEVER click on unsubscribe in junk emails! NEVER!
I can add the source to a filter in my email client which I can have simply delete them before I see them the next time they come in.

Wow, what email client?
Comcast and Thunderbird clients to not "unsubscribe" when marked as spam.

What you may try, which works for me is, go to the senders email and block it, this works for me on an iMac...

That "simple function" is probably client dependent. Not all email clients work the same way.

Having a similar experience, only they are coming in unsolicited texts. This is after recently placing a legitimate order for touch up paint for my Ford. Seems that many companies or whichever software provider they use for online ordering have no problem sharing your contact info.

You need to train your junk mail folder by sending these type of E-mails to the junk folder. Simply deleting them or ignoring them won't make them go away. And the "Unsubscribe" button is a joke on these type of spam.

I get them every day! Don't click on unsubscribe because that just tells then that your email account is a good one and they can use it for more spam. Just keep deleting and never click on any links.
