Somebody seems to have harvested a number email addresses from us. I don't know how it happened. Please accept my apologies. There doesn't seem to be any malicious intent (at the moment). None the less I suggest you just mark the email as spam and delete it. Do not reply to it or click on any of the links. We will review our security systems and makes sure they are up to snuff. I'll let you know if there is any further information I can share with you.

This seems to be a very common scam attempt with the intention of luring you into to send money to help for something or other. There's some more information about it here (https://www.xmission.com/%7Edaina/autoscamlist/sinfo_0000371.html).

Here's a copy of it:

Yeah, I got that today and opened it and when I read it and saw that it was spam I was kind of scared it would have somehow harmed my computer but it doesn't seem to have. And I naturally deleted and reported it as junk and blocked it.

Ironic, too because I have hardly been on WACCO for quite awhile. Well, poop happens.

I urge everyone not to just delete spam; first forward it to the authorities whose job it is to end it:
