There’s been some big fines levied against spam kings. I wouldn’t dare try to advise you other than to contact a lawyer.

A lot of people get unwanted emails and sort through them rather quickly, so, your email, not being from a known source, could be just deleted without having been read. Also, filters may block your emails from even getting to the intended targets.

Seek out a lawyer who has knowledge in this area.
