Had an email seeking instructor services and it looks suspicious. Says they got my name off the instructor list. Any other instructors get one?

Think our complete list got phished.

Title changed to reflect problem.

I received that email this morning also. I'm not an instructor but I was assisting one for WW school and my email address appears in the staff list here:

That's three now. Be interesting to see where it originated. Style of wording indicated some sort phishing scam. Handle with care!!!

Yeah, I got that one too and I'm not an instructor. I added it to my blocked senders list.

Recevied it last night around 11 PM. I also thought it looked kind of suspicious but bit on it anyway. Dang it! Came from a Mark Cole at g mail.

Attn Sir.


I got your contact displayed on a website while surfing for an instructor for my 15 and 18 yrs old Chlidren. My Chlidren will be ready to comply and get good Training from you, so therefore I want to secure your Services in giving them some (Arkansas Canoe Club Instruction).


Let me know what your availability is like, get back with details about your program and your contact details.


I await your reply.

Regards
Mr. Frank Brunc

I'se tried to warn you old buddy!

I'm a little slow some times. Well, most times............

When I saw that the name on the FROM address did not match the name on the so-called signature line, I immediately became suspicious. Also the language had a hint of the person in Africa who wants me to help transfer funds to the USA. At this point I knew I was dealing with either a spammer or a kayaker, so I deleted it.

You nailed it, Steve!!!!

I think I should be offended, but, I'm not quite sure.........

I've got to go now, headed to the bank to withdraw all of my funds. You wouldn't believe it but the Prince of Kenya had a falling out with his family and if I send him $50,000 he's going to cut me in on 1/2 interest in his family fortune in Encyte stock!!!! Plus, I'll grow some hair on my bald spot..........

Got one too!!! I knew he was off when he said Sir and all that other crap!!! Were in America dangit. Around here we say " hey you look youve been in the circus with those kinds of moves". Now some of you will get this cause you were at Hometown #2. The rest wont.

Got one too. The part I liked was the that " My 15 and 18 yr old chlidren are ready to comply to instruction"! Not any teenagers from around here!
