I've been receiving on various email addresses a few Welcome or Confirm your subscription emails lately (from brands that don't even exist in my country), and I guess they simply don't have a secure form on their website, and that bots are playing with it. We've been able to spot a bunch of our clients getting their (unprotected) forms abused since a few months. Bad guys seem to be at work, or maybe just preparing something for after the summer holidays.
The possibility did cross my mind and if the emails had been double-opt-in I would likely have given them the benefit of the doubt. But they were not double-opt-in. Neither did they respond to my PM on their Facebook page.
