Is there some sort of scam here?

I usually keep fairly well on top of spam email by unsubscribing to organisations who send it.

All of a sudden in the last week, I'm getting dozens of emails from Boots. 3-4 every day. I've never noticed them being particularly heavy spammers and I last ordered from them c.5 months ago.

I'm a bit scared to click on the unsubscribe link for this one, just because there are so many out of the blue.

Have you been talking about Boots? Your phone listens in you know ;)

I get loads of Boots emails, which I delete. I did try to use Boots last year when we could t go out, but they deleted my email account, despite sending emails all the time.

Their service is slow and there are better options.

Hover over the sender's email/name and see if it appears the same in the hover bar. If it's anything other than a legit boots email address, then it'll be spam
