This does happen. I've gotten several over the past 5 years, and I always block them. Most say deactivated member, but the text is always similar. And don't reply to them. This may be a result of a virus from someone's computer who may have your email address on that infected computer. I spoke to a woman over the phone a couple of weeks ago, and she asked me to send a photo of an item. BTW, I have very good virus protection on my computers. The next day she wrote to me and said she could not view the photos, although I'd never sent her anything. I called her, and she said there was a questionaire she had to fill out to view the photos. I had to politely tell her that I never send questionaires that have to be filled out to view a photo. I told her someone must have my email address on their infected computer, and I would recommend she NEVER fill out something with personal data to someone she really doesn't know. DAVE

My first message was a spam message. Very discouraging for sure. I just deleted the post.
