I believe it's called spamming and you can lose your ISP account over it,
If it's fairly low volume you may get away with it but if anyone complained you could end up with a problem.
I realise it's not in the same league as offering viagra to millions or trying to get people's bank details by some BS story about fake inheritances but it is spamming anyway.
It's not unheard of for people to be prosecuted or sued over it though this is very unlikely for lowish volume.
