Well I checked the source code and that one was definitely bogus. Thing is I know I didn't enter anything, but I remember getting before and don't remember if I clicked on the link then. Just to be sure updated the virus software and ran a full scan. It didn't find anything. I'm using Trend Micro, but I definitely am not smart enough to full consider things totally ok. I was just wondering if the address got picked up by some software, or if the list as a whole was dealing with the same thing. It apparently didn't come through the list or everyone would be dealing with it not just a couple.

I wouldn't answer any email that I don't know the sender. Now Oscar a photographer who was once on one of my lists sends me invitation to Facebook (he promotes himself several times a year) which is ok and I occasionally get other people I know from Linkedin but I would never answers someone I didn't know.RoyIn a message dated 11/15/2011 10:01:57 A.M.

It was an invitation to network with Rick Vincent on Linkedin, but the thing is as though I am on Linked in, it this isn't the email address I use for Linked in. I wondered if someone else on the list got the same email and whether or not it was list related. It could have just as easily been someone that got the email address from the website, and it looks legit but I strongly suspect a virus somewhere. Not sure how, but wondered if others have gotten the same.Mark
