All of Rootsweb has been hit by these spammers. I apologize and they have been reported to the FTC. Please do not re-send their messages to this list. We have all seen them. I will be making this list a closed list, that means that only people that are subscribed to the list are able to post to it. That isn't always the answer, as some notorious spammers, such as the last one, actually subscribed to the list, then post their spam. FTC (Federal Trade Commission) now has the special address where you can forward any spam whether it is get rich quick scheme or dirty/porn spam. The address is uce@ftc.gov. They issued warnings to more than 1,000 spammers few days ago that they are attracting the law enforcement now. So forward (always forward!) such spam messages to uce@ftc.gov Good luck in your quest, Yvonne, Listowner *_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_* Yvonne James-Henderson, Burke, VA NC USGenWeb Archive Manager http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/nc/ncfiles.htm God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.
