A hostel company I stayed with a while back emailed me with the subject: “Your booking is confirmed!”. This made me frantically check all my accounts since I hadn’t booked any hostels recently. I was super concerned until I opened the email and saw… it was a stupid marketing email…
This kind of marketing should be illegal. Don’t use Clink Hostels.
Look up the email for their legal department and demand they cancel all fraudulent bookings under your name. Play dumb a little so they take it up with marketing.
Would instantly unsubscribe, leave negative reviews and never stay there again.
And report the email as spam on Gmail
Op is using ProtonMail, there’s a report button there also.
I hope Gmail aggregates the reports from other platforms, because most of Clink’s target market uses Gmail
Send a message to their help desk saying you got an email confirmation and would like to cancel it. Act very confused about the situation. Waste their time and make it their problem.

Hey, Clink Hostels.
I want so inform you that a spam mail was sent from your address.
Oh, that was actually you??? 🙄😑 That’s embarrassing.
I get physical junk mail that makes it seem like I purchased something, subscribed to something, or signed up for something. It’s infuriating to say the least, probably illegal, too.
Same. Similar to those extended warranty scams, you’ll see the disclaimer in teeny tiny print at the bottom of the page on the backside.
I just bought a car and my wife keeps wanting me to look at all the “final notice” crap we keep getting. I told her if it isn’t from our insurance company then toss it.
I open them up. If there’s a prepaid return envelope, I tear off everything with my information (including any barcodes), stick it in the envelope, and mail it back. Blank, of course.
But then they have to pay the postal service to mail it, and someone to open it.
I’m a job creator!Back in the day you could tape their prepaid letters to bricks and have em pay for it.
Now the Post Office just chucks it as “dead mail” same as other “non-mailable items” found in mailboxes.
This is like how in recent months I’ve been receiving “your account will be shut down” messages from services I’ve been using for literal decades, simply because I only use them 2-3 times a year, when they are actually useful to me, rather than regard them as some sort of social media platform.
It’s super pathetic attention whoring by companies that lost any sense of what value they bring to their customers.
