I regularly have doppelgangers that sign up for services with my email address.

I've been added to door/visitor notifications. I have received medical information for them. Retirement package info. A telecom internal tracker. A Doubleclick account for a while. Lessons for their children. Countless rewards accounts.

This has literally never happened to me... is your email address "go@away.com" or something?

I also checked my throwaway gmail and it was included in a French Citizen leak [1]. I'm neither French, nor do I have any other connection to France. Not sure why my email would be included there, except for some random using my email (or misspelling theirs) – it's [5-7 letter english word][number] at gmail.
