            Looks like something similar to the Bing Rewards program.

                Well I can't honestly say RedHat has never sent me an email with cats or the word "womp."

                    It is clearly the Bing rewards stuff.

                    He signed up for something and is getting spammed for it.

                      It's Bing rewards...

                      I always get $5 or $10 off Amazon just for using Bing. And I don't mind because I never notice a difference in results when using either Bing or Google. Seems the same to me. Except when I use Bing, I get free money. I don't do anything extra that I wouldn't do on Google searches.

                      Except maybe when I get those emails, I'll quickly take 30 seconds once a week or whatever to get the bonus points.

                        I do have to give them credit for the Super Troopers reference in the second one.
