Getting random emails from 3Community re members new ranking

Hi, this afternoon 10th March 2021, I got like 2 random emails from ThreeCommunity@three.ie about random members who got upgraded rank. Something is broke me thinks. See image

I got emails today from 3 about people obtaining a new ranking.

Why?

Why would you think that users would care about this?

It's pretty weird.

How do I stop these? There doesn't seem to be any option in notification settings.

I've also received 5 such messages today and am not subscribed to any three communications - concerned there is a data breach / hack of the email databases

I can assure you that this error has NOT been rectified! I received 7 this morning!

I haven't gotten anymore myself, so they must be getting sent to random people.

It's a bit of a strange one!

Good way to get more traffic to the site though, even if they're all angry..

Edit:

So, I just got an email telling me about this post that I posted as if it was posted by somebody else. There's definitely some weird stuff going on at 3. Maybe they've got a new automated bot doing some of the work and it's a bit dumb, or something?

@mollyg75 Can you tell me the times you received those emails? Maybe include a screenshot here like to original poster? 

@gijoe50000 Hi and thanks for your feedback here. Yes, we're working on ways to improve 3Community and updating the older system. Did you're more recent notification call out "re: Getting random emails from 3Community re members new ranking" and mentioned who just posted? 

You can unsubscribe from this thread by going to options and selecting unsubscribe. 

[gijoe50000]

Yes. 

Generally forums "know" that it was you who wrote the post so they don't email you telling you that someone (you) made a post.

Edit: And I just got an email about this post too, so it wasn't a one off glitch..
