Hi Everyone:

The old genealogy scam is back. www.genseekers.com

Behind the password protection are links to the free
genealogy on-line. There is no content of their own.

In order to get the "5-day free trial" you have to
surrender a credit card or bank account number. You
have to cancel within 5 days or you get dinged. Guess
what? The cancellation e-mail bounces. Does this
surprise you?

One person who recently fell for the come-on had
his/her account dinged not once, but twice.

It is time to remind folks on your state and county
mailing lists about these scoundrels. It has been a
couple of years since we have mentioned this.

Permission is granted to pass this on.
