This is the third attempt they’ve made to work with that guy that actually got routed to me because their salespeople don’t do their due diligence. Shocking.

Edit; a little extra context: I have an email alias on a domain similar to one he might use, and regularly receive email addressed to him. Reddit marketing folks reached out in a less cookie cutter manner a couple times last year, this is more of a mailing list outreach attempt.

      The key detail that made their intent clear is that to “to” name on the earlier correspondence had his name on it.

      The email alias ended up being an almost-typosquatted version of one he would have, so I’m guessing some marketing agency stuffed it on their list of potential email addresses for him.
