Hi,

got a spam message on some of my websites and as I am scraping a lot of mails myself and using expensive databases, this seems like a cheap shortcut. 38,302,197 emails :)
The samples they provide seem legit, wondering if someone purchased this and what the quality is?

Thanks,

Daniel

tried searching for reviews about the quality, had no luck. no answer in the chat about how old the data is.....
 
Consider this. The domain was registered 2 months ago, but they're talking about closing down now with "sad regret". They apparently have a massive data list, but resort to spamming via WP forms. A reverse image search shows the individuals from their testimonials are all fake. And prices too good to be true.

With that said, it's still possible that they do have this data, but most likely not from scraping themselves. Could be from data leaks, hacks, or any other sketchy means. I'd personally stay away, but if you have $50 you don't mind gambling with, then why not. Although I'd be sure to clean and scrub that list before mailing.

Thanks for the answer much appreciated. the amount of emails seems tempting but the samples already looked sketchy so how do you clean and scrub such a list? and what are the costs?
 
If you use lower quality email address lists to send out 38k emails, and a higher % of people (over using a HQ/organic list) report you/send the email to spam, your inboxing rate will decline.
So if you try to use a cheap shortcut like this it might harm you in the long-run, even if you abandon their service afterwards to go back to HQ and/or organic lists, your mail server will be less trusted and will be less efficient. So less people will click- or even see- your emails, a loss for you.


Not worth the "risk" IMO unless a burner was sending out the emails for this campaign to these addresses, and then it's adding costs and effort to a method you used as a shortcut.
And if you don't warm up this temp mail server or try to further cut costs/effort for this low cost/effort method, it won't be effective at all.
