CARELESS WITH CUSTOMER INFO
I had the same gmail account for approximately 16 years and could count on 1 hand the number of SPAM messages I received. In January 2025, I went in to Petsmart to get some items for my mother's dogs and they asked about the Rewards. I knew she had a card but when I provided her phone number, they said they needed an email for the account which I thought was odd. Stupidly I provided my gmail address, which is not connected to ANYTHING - I do not use this email for anything other than my phone service and calendar. I never considered that within 3 days of providing that, not only would I start getting dozens of messages a day from Petsmart, but I would also suddenly start getting pornographic spam messages. It is now approximately 2 1/2 months since I made that stupid mistake and I now average approximately 150 SPAM messages a day -75% of which are pornographic. Giving my email address to Petsmart was the only change I made - yet they deny it is connected. This company will not provide any details on what they have done with my personal information. I am going to have to deactivate that email. I will never set foot in this business again. If my elderly mother needs pet supplies - I'll get them somewhere else.
