If the address isn’t a “no-reply@“, I generally do the same, but more and more I’m getting “this message is sent from an unmonitored email address, please do not reply”.
The worst so far is Royal Bank of Canada. One of their customers used my gmail address and I’ve been getting all sorts of private information about them like low balance alerts with the exact amount in their bank account, etc. I’ve tried contacting their security dept., their customer service dept., and even @rbc or equivalent in various social media (which I detest) saying “please, for the love of all gods, STOP.” Once, via twitter, an RBC person gave me a number to call and through various hoops and literally _hours_ of sitting on hold, explaining the situation, jumping through stupid automated phone trees, etc., I finally spoke to a person who said they’d discuss it _with the customer_ during an appointment I knew the customer was having with them because I received the reminder notices. That was about a year and a half ago. Yet the email keeps coming. It boggles my mind.
