I got this in my inbox today, I believe it to be real, however I'll post the headers below. The reason I think it may be real is that there is some person out there named Carol Pollock who for some reason and some how is using the email address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] How, I haven't the faintest clue. Here are the headers:

I could of course throw this into my spam folder and report it with the rest or I could just delete it, however I'm curious as to whether its an actual message from them or not. It has a valid certificate issued by VeriSign OU = www.verisign.com/CPS Incorp.by Ref. LIABILITY LTD.(c)97 VeriSign OU = VeriSign International Server CA - Class 3 OU = VeriSign, Inc. O = VeriSign Trust Network 02/12/2006 18:00:00 (02/13/2006 00:00:00 GMT) 02/13/2007 17:59:59 (02/13/2007 23:59:59 GMT) I'm going to assume that its a vaild message and that she's again using my email address and that I'm getting some of her mail. This happened with Circuit City last month and I 'tried' talking to them about this but since their support apparently has been outsourced I got nowhere, the same as when I tried to talk to Earthlink about it. -- Chris
