Between this warning and an earlier warning from an MOC admin about a spam email, I have been receiving email for friends, family and reputable companies that I have associated with about things like this - passwords, money to send me and other crap like that.

I don't know what's happened recently but in the last three months, I have received so many of these it's very hard to trust even serious emails. Everyone must now beware that all email even from trusted sources be taken very seriously when asking for ANY personal information. These are going past my SPAM, JUNK and other security checks I have in place because they are coming from known sources that I have entrusted to email. The junkers and spammers are scanning our mailing lists to acquire our thought-to-be-secure address books. I have had 4 very close friends and family who have had their accounts hacked and one of them was a very proficient computer expert. Everyone must be very careful! These folks are getting very clever.

Be careful all!
