[UK-CONTEST] Pirate e-mails

[John Lemay]

Take care

Many of these "failure to deliver" type mails are not just spam but they
have nasty attachments !!

Do not open them

Dear UK-Contest,
I've recently received e-mails where the 'from' name
purports to be from G3txf, G3rfx, G3pjt (note the lower-
case ending). These are spam. They have apparently stolen
our e-mail i.d. names, but not quite got it right (upper-lower
case confusion). They are easily deleted.
More worrying - I am now receiving about 200 e-mails daily
purporting to be 'failure, could not deliver' notifications.
Again, they are easily deleted but this internet-vandalism is
really depressing me! Someone may be sending out spam
using my e-mail address so bounced messages come
back to me. I have even received it myself!
Forgive the bandwidth
