WARNING!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!!

To let the MOC member know -- there is a member that is not on here for advancement of MOC or any info on Montanas or anything else--except to get your email address !

His name is coming across as George Manda(MOC name-- geo123). He is from the Ivory Coast and just joined today (Nov. 4, 2010)and is trying to pull a fast one on all of us! He is promoting some type of scam because he sends an email to you, and first off says he is contacting you and it is a "totally legal" thing!

I hope the administrators and moderators get on this and block anything he is sending out or the use of our addresses and the misuse of MOC!!

Rondo -

Beat you to it. See my post on Scam.. He must be a fast typer. I don't think he could mass email unless he hacked the site. I received it at 4:46 this morning. Probably sent from his 3400 in Africa about 10 am his time.

geo123 is his MOC name. If you check the member name, it shows George Manda. They are one and the same.

I have been safe so far and I wish I knew why. I have so many levels of security, I don't know which one worked, or maybe I just didn't get it, or won't get it. I never get these and I don't know why I've been so lucky. But I spend a small fortune in virus checkers, internet security, and levels of applications with their own levels of security and haven't been plagued yet.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed but only most of the time because it's harder to type that way.

Ah, well, glad (????? ?????) to hear he is one and the same. He has been locked out under this name/user name, per thread posted by one of the admins/moderators.

I have checked my MOC email a couple of times, and so far, knock on wood and my tired ole brain/head, the nasty culprit has not hit me. I even checked my SPAM box.

Course, now that I said this, if NC ever gets back in, I am sure that I will be his/her first on the hit list!

I haven't received the e-mail and I am upset! I could use the $$ he is giving away. Oh well, I likely will get another e-mail opportunity shortly.

I checked geo123 as soon as I read Ron's post this am and it had already been locked by admin. But that being said I also received the email as did Betsy. No biggy, it is in trash where it belongs.

Oh boy I feel a lot better now. I finally got my copy of the e-mail. I too now have an opportunity to acquire incredible wealth. The e-mail was sent very early this morning (1:18 PDT) but I didn't get it in my mailbox until 9:50 PM tonight. I guess GMail was busy today.
