@feralparrot I dug thru the garbage after your post, mine was addressed to me also. It was stamped “presort standard”, sign of a bulk mailing. Don’t limit your suspicions to just seed banks, somehow our names and addresses are being sold. That’s why I was backtracking recent purchases from anyone remotely related to this way of life. 
the newest company ive most recently purchased from in the last year is “spider farmer” and “Cropsalt’s. . I’ve purchased other products, in the last year, but have purchased from the same companies for a number of years without this BS happening. 

I choose not to contact the company unless it happens again, part of me thinks if I responding in any way, verifies to them they have good contact info! Needless to say, they will never get my business. 
this business should be blacklisted all over Percy’s warning members that this company does not take your privacy seriously!

Amazon was another recent purchase. Got some “BioCanna” nutes. Ordered thru Amazon, shipped from some grow store I’ve never heard of. 

IDK, concerning !!

An other thing folks should think about- watch what you say at work, in the presence of your computer. I had a conversation with someone, then during lunch, opened my web browser and there are advertisements for things I was talking about on my f-ing work computer!

Hello 

That is really scary shit   it would freak me out big time. I get annoyed enough with junk mail .spam . People ringing me about the accident I was involved in and other bs that has nothing to do with me .

I really hate the idea that my data is available out there on the Internet.  Here in the UK there are cameras everywhere and now stuff listens to me, I value my privacy. Oh no ranting now

Anyhow thank you feral parrot for your post, I understand your frustration completely.  Awful marketing , I will definitely not use that company.

I have used the vault , and ali bongo for seeds , toys and recieved excellent very discreet service. 

Best wishes 

Hashimoto 

I have to say I love your alias feral parrot lol brilliant

@sevans1965 I have to say, I've had a different experience with HGCC. Nothing as blatant and potentially harmful as yours, though, just "off" enough to make me not really trust them. Plenty of other banks out there I don't have that issue/feeling with so, for me, there's no point in doing business with HGCC in the future. My one and only interaction with them was the 4 failed seeds in my original 1st grow diary. Yes, I messed up but that doesn't explain why the other 3 seeds popped but didn't grow and thrive. Also, yes, they sent me 4 replacement seeds without an argument, but they didn't show up properly packaged as was described by HGCC, rather from some other, unknown and near impossible to find, seed supplier in a state other than where HGCC is based. Add that to the fact that they were selling them as their own product, yet don't list that specific strain in their catalog. All that is probably meaningless, though couple it with your experience and I have to think hard about having any interaction with them. Even their discussion board is...well, let's just say that's where I came to this group from because I was looking for a MUCH better experience.

First, THANK YOU for this heads up. 

Post card absolutely unforgivable. Also their seeds are bogus since Strawberry Cough is a clone only and the parents are gone the best they could sell is an S1, but they make it sound like they've been breeding it the whole time.

I checked out Kyle Kushman's shop looking for a contact. They say use social media, so I blasted them on YouTube since they're too stupid to have a discreet method of communication. 

Kyle Kushman is dead to me.

Oh man... Where i am getting busted can mean a 1st degree felony basically losing your life over 1 stupid advertisement... That's some bullshit you would expect from a corporation like Truleive or something not a company owned by fellow cannabis enthusiasts. Thank you for the heads up that kind of shit would sink me id be fucked...
