Interesting... a supposed anti-spam company gleaning addresses from an
anti-spam list to spam them. What ever others thought of them before, I
know what I think of them now. Well, I will share my response to them as
well. :-)
if it really came from them, it's probably an isolated/unsupported
initiative from a "marketer gone crazy".
report the problem to their abuse team (or anyone in their tech team).
In all companies I worked for, I've seen few guys coming up with bad
"good ideas/initiatives". Most of the time, these were stopped during
internal discussions, but sometimes such initiatives were only
discovered later thanks to a complaint. so do complain, but provide
evidence (message with full headers).

Boy, you are border line on SPAM by sending me this message to begin with.
You are obviously sucking addresses from one listserve or another. I don't
think you want my opinion. You will be lucky if I don't blacklist your
company.

Hi Dave,
Hope this message finds you well.
The reason I contact you is to get your feedback on best practices in
anti-spam technology. In exchange for your time, I can offer you a free
coffee from Starbucks.
Please let me know if you're available for a quick call.
Best,
Des
