Subject: [LO] Be Aware -- Legal Notice
Date: Fri, 5 Jul 2002 09:07:58 -0700


Greetings All.

I forward the message below as a warning to all. It has nothing to do
with Rootsweb but in my opinion is another scam that unfortunately many
unsuspecting recipients may succumb to. Despite the subject line I do
not see this message as being a valid legal notice.

While they state they have sold my information I have given them no
permission to either collect information to me, nor to sell that
information to any third parties.

There is an impressive website at the address given but I still believe
this to be a scam and would warn everyone not to send these jerks one
penny.

Although the message gives a US mailing address I have no idea of what
legal body a complaint regarding this might be sent to. If anyone else
does feel free to forward this message to them.

Happy Hunting.
