Where do you get a list of 1 million valid emails?

Type "buy email lists" into Google and pick any ad. Even Salesforce appears to be selling 30 million e-mails.

You just crawl the web. I am not surprised either by this, I don't consider emails and first/last name as private data.

FB emails are probably a bit "fresher" than ones found by randomly crawling the web.
