Anyone else get an unexpected email from AllOutdoor.com today?

[bogus]

I received an email from alloutdoor.com today though I'm pretty sure I have never heard of them before. I definitely didn't sign-up for emails from them.

I did click on the link to their "Ammo Shortage 2013" article and was entertained with the thrashing amongst posters thereafter. Actually had a post from one of our own INGO members.

Doesn't look like too bad a place to visit.

Just curious if anyone has any idea where they may have gotten their mailing list from?

I get a couple outdoor related newsletters.. none of which I signed up for. I figure some shop shared my address and I just mark em all as spam in GMail.

 

[Fishersjohn48]

Yup got it. A couple other guys here at work got it as well.

Hmmm...kind of makes you wonder what the common denominator is doesn't it?

The last place I remember including a newsletter subscription during a sign-up was Sportman's Guide. It could be any number of places I guess. I hit all the usual places such as Midway, Brownells, Cabela's, Bass Pro, Palmetto, Bravo Company, Job Bob's, etc...So who knows where they got it from. No big deal. Just curious.

I got it too. But I haven't placed an online order relating to the outdoors for nearly 6 months..

I got two back to back unsolicited emails also. Someone has farmed out our email addresses which I don't much appreciate but hey, whatcha gonna do about it ??

So far the common denominator here is e mails from Ruger. Anyone else get E mail from Ruger that got this?

 

[bogus]

Yep. I get the Ruger newsletter. I also utilized the mass gun control form letter system from them as well.

If I get newsletters from Ruger, they are autospammed (I registered a 10/22 with em last year), but I did use their gun control form.

 

[Fenway]

Did not get it.

I got the AllOutdoor e-mail but I haven't had any correspondence with Ruger.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

[pack-indy]

Same here.

New website, alloutdoor.com - Survivalist Forum

Seems they're doing a lot of spamming. Their excuse is that "someone else signed you up." Uh huh.

Looks like they're owned or own TheFirearmBlog. I don't remember going to that site, but who knows.. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2012/10/02/the-firearm-blog-acquired-by-alloutdoor-com/
