Where did Kelly get that information? Wow, there's nothing there to insinuate that you are the person who we were warned about! Hope people are more careful next time, and even though it was not I, Kathryn, I sincerely apologize because I know you are legit and are a great person for helping others! The email that was sent out warning us said that the person doing the "scam" sends out as if they are the list owner/manager and that they only ask that you give them email addresses!
