I don’t give a shit about reddit’s DP program.
The first two or three emails I was willing to ignore. But they keep sending these.
How desperate do you have to be?
Not enough bag holders. Spez needs his golden Tesla signed by Elon, and he’s still a few million suckers away.
Translation “Somebody please hold my bags”
I got that email today too for one of my accounts. Oddly, its my old account that I retired long ago. The one I was still using up till the exodus last year, hasnt gotten a second email yet. Theyre really desperate for that cash money arent they?
I logged into my old account, replied to the message, and told them to pack sand and that I hoped those WSB numpties short their stock into oblivion.
I received one for a moderation bot I created
🎶 Isn’t it ironic 🎶
I reported it as spam.
I think someone else did that and got banned for “report abuse”. Absolutely bonkers.
I should’ve clarified I did that on my email provider lol
Eh, works either way.
Is this even legal?
Aside from the spam stuff, does the FTC allow this?
Assuming you’re in the US, everything is allowed, and an entity as benign as thr FTC can’t stop that.
Desperation is a great look for an IPO.
I reckon closing your account or calling it out on a popular sub could have similar beneficial outcomes here
I’ve gotten it via email and via dm
I’ve reported as spam in Gmail and blocked the user on old.reddit
Fuck them and their bags.

I got a reminder email from them, stating that if you didn’t want to join I needn’t worry; this would be the last email they’d send about it.
They then sent a DM from u/reddit to my account, meaning I got another email about it.
Even something as simple as that they can’t get right.
Fucking same I read the email when I received the dm and chuckled about it as the push notification came in.
Hey, glad we could find you here. Did you know that the Reddit Directed Share Program deadline is 5 March 2024?
Lol this would be funny as fuck if they started posting about their dick scam program here on Lemmy.
They started to send me this less than a day after the initial mail lmao
I’d get a better ROI from selling my old account to spammers.
I’d be open to that. Is there a market place?
eBay
Yikes! You’re right. People are selling accounts for roughly 50-100 €, which is much more than what I expected.
I got spammed bt e-mail in old reddit accounts i didn’t evem remember having created. Some 6 accounts in total, long abandoned with barely any karma. They are extremely desperate.
They’d probably have better luck launching and rugging a crypto.
They tried that one.
They did ride the NFT wave with NFT avatars. Doubt that was a profitable venture
They banned me for talking shit on nazis and still spend me spam trying to get me to their website they don’t even want me on. And if I do click on it there’s a big red banner telling me I’m not welcome. Crazy. Fuck reddit, and most it’s users.
Did you and the other millions of users opt into receiving marketing emails from them when you signed up?
Let’s starts a class action lawsuit.
That’s a reddit inbox message, not an email
They are also directly emailing people.
