    You can talk to the news admin at individual.net. I assume that this is
    the New Google Spammer testing out new ways to spam Usenet in preparation
    for the impending shutdown of the Google gateway, since ihis has his fingerprints all over it.

    For me the message looks like e-mail spam.

    For once, don't post your own email address. It might just be harvested
    here and results in more spam.

    What would have been interesting was the header of that mail.

    Am also getting "new" spam in Dutch. I always find spam in other
    languages than English more interesting to investigate (and possibly then retaliate by trying to have them shut down by their ISP), because they
    are often amateurs.

    individual.net is a German site which requires payment, and the
    authorities there seem to really hate network abuse, so it should be
    quite easy to get the spammer identified if he used his own bank account
    for that.

    Now I did some research. Took the subject and saw what Google has to say.

    It finds the URL anwb . nl/auto/elektrisch-rijden/laadpalen/hoe-kies-je-een-laadpaal-thuis

    From what I can tell your spammer is either an affiliate of the site, or
    the owner itself.

    The target (anwb.nl) itself looks to me like either a legit company with
    a broken (no confirmed opt-in) affiliate service. That's why you received
    this mail (AKA spam).

    Or even an "Electric vehicle charging scam". They want you to sign up and
    pay a membership fee to have access to the "benefits".

    Trust Pilot gives a mixed to negative score. While the positive scores
    come from countries (like UK), where the service is not offered. People complain they cannot cancel the membership, and when calling the support
    phone number no one picks up.

    Anyway, to see, who sent this spam, you need to analyze the header of
    the mail. Or post them here that others can have a look. But at the end,
    there is probably nothing you can do other than to find a pattern you can
    feed to you mail filter to discard future spam like this.
