Would you share your colleague's work email address without their permission with a salesperson who phoned you up asking about the company ( and you had no idea what they wanted).

Well it depends what was standard process.

I have done. I've also had it done to me.

No hardship to receive an unwanted email. Just delete it

Emptymug · 15/03/2023 15:44

That's what I thought too!

No

Albaniarocks · 15/03/2023 15:47

Definitely not. I'd take their details and pass it on.

notacooldad · 15/03/2023 15:47

No.

MrsBunnyEars · 15/03/2023 15:48

No, but I wouldn’t be overly fussed if someone did it to me.

CathyCandle · 15/03/2023 15:50

No , I'd offer to take their number and if colleague is interested they'll call back. They might end up with lots of spam otherwise.

AcornGreen · 15/03/2023 16:04

Yes. Unless there was some ridiculous company policy that forbids business emails to be shared.

ilovewispas · 15/03/2023 16:27

No, work in a regulated and targeted by cyber attackers industry.

I'd get in trouble!

They could email them with a phishing email.

EspeciallyDedicated · 15/03/2023 16:29

No, we have an info@ email address and that is the only one we give out

NameChangeFor2023 · 15/03/2023 16:34

Nope. I would offer to take their details but would never give out any.

Paq · 15/03/2023 16:35

No, because I wouldn't want them to be pestered by cold calling salespeople.

SideshowAuntSallly · 15/03/2023 17:58

No because you can't find our work emails online. If you could no problem but as you can't I wouldn't.

Yes, especially if it would annoy them! Only kidding. That's what info at is for
