    There's a lot of that going around now ... or again. Suggestion would be, just delete it. DO NOT OPEN IT.
    Trouts don't live in ugly places.

    A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.

    Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.

    The spam I’ve received recently has been pretty obvious - weird title or unrecognized sender; I just mark them and delete them. If you’re not sure, do a search on the sender’s name and see if they’ve posted any real content on this site; if not, toss them.

    Regards,

    Didn't even bother to search for the senders name as looked like another similar spam email yesterday with lines of "code" just deleted.

    I just turned my computer on, logged in to FAOL and I got another weird spam. Need to block these creeps. Jim
