What may have happened (in part) is that they got an email address that may have contained the screen name and then you could get slammed with email appearing to be from all types of places, though it isn't if you look at their email used to send it or a link in the text.
More recently two email addresses I have started getting hit with emails with attachments (I delete and compact Thunderbird right after) and a few other regular spam mailings. That alone can be frustrating. It seems to be much better since closing one of them.
I can feel for you!

No, I didn't name anything Pressing-on other than my forum name here.
The thing about Amazon....I can search for an item anywhere and then log into Amazon, the item I have searched for is at the bottom of the page. So, yes, they do track what we are doing online, and I think it extends further than we think.
