ALCON be advised. I just got a scam email sent to me through the WT from Willy55. Be extra careful about emails from people through the board till further notice.

I check my email first when I turn on my computor before I come here and read the new posts. I thought "That's a new member, never heard of Wiley55 before, maybe he wants to buy a HOGCC patch". About 3 words into it I was like "ahh, spam. delete." Problem solved. I didn't think it happened to anyone else until I saw this thread.

I get them a few times a week, although this is the first attributed to the WT board. Like snipe said, they get banned as soon as possible after they are discovered. All they have to do is "join" the board and they can mine the email addy's in the members section.

Wow, you would think a person who want's to "keep this transaction
highly confidential" and find a "trustworthy person" would find a better way of contacting people instead of sending an email to this entire group.

It is why my email addy is a spoof.

Why would anyone leave their real email addy on the profile after registration is beyond me.
