today we received an email from a one-person company from whom in the past, once and a long time ago, we bought something online. This is the only reason this person has our email address. they are not a friend or acquaintance.
the email was a big long one basically asking for people to sponsor a relative of the person, who was doing a sponsored event for a charity that was close to the hearts of their family who have a child with a disability. the relative, the child and the sponsored event are on the other side of the world! it had details of the family members name, their childs name and disability and the place they live!
is it not incredibly cheeky/rude to, I assume, spam ALL your past customers with a grabby request like this, not to mention just wrong to give out such personal details to random strangers! And WWYD, I have been cross about it all day, it felt like such an invasion of privacy for some reason.
Gah. I deleted it of course but I still feel CROSS!
