{Disarmed} Re: Is any one else getting this "free iris" message?


Thank you John.  I know about Phishing and would not send a message.  That is the same reason I did not open it.   
 
I think I will see if I can forward it to Kent as he has offered to try and check it out on his MAC.  However, I am not sure I can find a way without opening it or ??  I will have to get some advice from my son first.
 
Anything I do with it will be done off-group.  I do not want to create problems for anyone.
 
Thank you,
 
Jan in Chatsworth

Sending a response as Connie suggests may be a very bad idea. Often
spammers send out messages like that just hoping someone will respond
to it. When they get a response, they know they have a valid address
(the responder's) and can add it to a list for spammers to use. It is
called Phishing (fishing)

Unfortunately the way it is.
