Undesirable Outreach Practices
I received multiple unsolicited cold emails from addresses using the domain @crestelevate.info, asking about business funding opportunities. When I replied once asking what the email was about, I then received four automated follow-up emails from a group associated under the name of GreenBridge Capital (website: greenbridgecapital.com). Here’s what I found regarding the domains involved: crestelevate.info — used in the initial outreach emails. This domain appears to be associated with third-party outreach rather than the lender itself. stonebridge-funding.com — the crestelevate.info domain redirects to this site, which appears connected to the outreach source. According to public domain records, stonebridge-funding.com was created on August 3, 2025. greenbridgecapital.com — the legitimate lender’s website, which appears to be older and established, with a creation date of December 22, 2005. Based on this, it seems likely that GreenBridge Capital is using third-party lead generation or affiliate outreach partners to contact business owners. Their privacy policy allows broad sharing of personal information with “service providers” and marketing partners, which may explain how they obtained an email address that I have never publicly shared. While the lender’s main site appears established, the use of recently created domains for cold outreach and the lack of transparency about how my email address was sourced were concerning. Prospective customers should be aware that initial contact may come from third-party entities, and should read the privacy policy carefully.
