Bruce was kind enough to just inform me that some SOB has pirated my e-mail address, palmettotreasure@aol.com, and my e-mail contacts in PGCA. Be assured that it is not me trying to sell you Canadian Viagra. I found out about it yesterday just before my office computer crashed showing the message "TROJAN HORSE". Please do not open any e-mails that you receive from the above address. I'll let you know on the forum when it's safe to read me again. I have informed the Canadian Consumer Affairs and AOL but as yet have had no response.

Best Regards, George:banghead:

George, although it may be embarassing from the victim's point of view it is happening more and more these days. The recipient of such e-mails can easily protect himself by simply not opening the attached links or the links that are included in the text of these e-mails. Opening the e-mail sent by someone we know and trust isn't the problem - opening the links, however, is.

George, exactly how much of a better deal is the Canadian Viagra?

Dean: Thanks for the info. I don't know what I did tp percipitate this. I do always delete e-mails from unknown senders. I can't imagine how they did this but be assured, I'm going to get to the bottom of this and if I can find the culprit I may just put a contract on him.

Bill: I have no idea. I'm well beyond the need of it.

Best Regards as Always, George
