Things like this are the reason that when a company starts spamming me, I update my account with the company's own information.
I started when no matter how many times I tried to unsubscribe, Walgreens kept using my phone number (which is supposed to be used to verify that the right person is getting the prescription) to spam me flu shot notices, auto-refill offers, and more. So now those robocalls go to Walgreens HQ.
Most companies list an email address and phone number for their PR departments on their web sites, so these are what I use since they're not hidden and go to real people.
I know this doesn't work for 2FA, but it's certainly satisfying in other scenarios.
For a while, you'd be asked for your post code when buying TV equipment (UK). Whilst it wasn't a legal requirement to provide, a lot of places would be really awkward about it if you didn't. I took a small amount of satisfaction in providing the Downing Street post code.
It's now no longer an issue as companies aren't required to ask for and forward that data to TVL so they don't ask (and I'm probably ordering online so they have it anyway).
When a website offers you a quote about water fountains/new printers/whatever, I doub't it's legal to say that you're company X and that you'd be interested in this particular quote.
I'd be interested in seeing a specific law or case where that sort of thing was illegal. Lying by itself isn't illegal (in the United States at least, i dunno about elsewhere)
