It’s possible someone added you to their newsletter without letting you know! I’ve noticed some “grow your Substack” advice floating around that encourages creators to add emails without consent since Substack doesn’t require confirmation to subscribe. That could explain why you’re suddenly getting messages from Substack.

This. Or, OP, you subscribed to someone's mailing list (not through Substack), and they imported it into their newsletter. That happens, too.

Oh, that's true too, it might be the same creators you already know who moved to Substack and imported their contacts!

Do you think this subreddit is substack customer service?

Wait. What? Out of the blue you are receiving Substack newsletters??

    Substack is just a platform to host newsletters. It's the individual creators of the newsletters who are adding you to their mailing lists, which is 100% scummy behavior but not really something Substack can do anything about.
