I received the following email to my personal email address:

*Hi, This is Franklin Smith,

While reviewing Lemmygrad.ml, I noticed several issues such as broken links, pages returning 4XX errors, images missing ALT text, pages without meta descriptions, duplicate or missing meta tags, and overly long or unoptimized title tags of which can affect your website on Google.

Our team specializes in fixing these issues and optimizing websites for better visibility and higher rankings. If you're interested, I’d be happy to share a detailed proposal tailored to your website at an that fits your budget.

Best Regards,

Franklin Smith Web Consultant

What is this? I'm not the owner or a moderator here but I have posted my email address here. Do they just trawl through lemmy looking for anyone's email to send this to?

At my last job i was the google admin and managed all the addresses of former employees and whatnot. We generally just set up forwarding to an email bucket. I saw these types of emails to just about every single former employee in the company and I used to get them as well. I think this is just what you suspected, someone scraped emails from the site, and blasted this template email out.
