We Don’t Like Spam (But We’ve Been Getting A Lot of EV Spam Lately)

/ June 3, 2025

From Transport Evolved.

It’s been quite a tough few weeks for the EV world, and with an increase in both harassment and spam inside our inbox, we decided to let you know some of the truly bizarre (and sometimes amusing) emails we’ve been getting.

Some of it is run-of-the-mill spam. Some of it targets us as EV experts. And some of it is just so strange that we had to bring in an expert in subterfuge.
