Wait what? Can you give me more details?
Sorry I’m too American because I bend over and accept corporate penetration.

So, company cannot buy your data. A company also needs a valid reason to hold your data. Also, company needs to have your consent to have this data, ie, you need to interact with them.
So if someone messages you out of the blue, someone you never dealt with… How did they get your info? How do they have a valid reason to contact you if you never dealt with them before? And why would they have your permission to contact you if you never gave it to them?
Answer is, they’re using your info illegally. The copy pasta is basically giving them notice to remote all your records and if they don’t comply you’ll be reporting them.

Fun fact - GDPR applies to EU citizens wherever they are, so as an American you can ask to get your data removed based on GDPR and even though it doesn’t apply to you, they will often not bother to check and do it.
