Key data point: If the mail was being spammed to NANOG, I would have
received that mail at this address, one of several that I use
specifically for public mailing lists. The mail I did receive (multiple
e-mail letters, by the way, some of them obvious form letters) came to
my primary work address, which had been used in the past to contact that
company to buy equipment.
So my answer to your precise question would be "no".
