REFLECTOR: Reflector Digest, Vol 111, Issue 50

[Velocity Aircraft Owners and Builders list]

A member of the list posted it.  That's how.

Of course, that member's email account was hacked.  Short of moderating 
the list, there is no way to prevent this from happening.

Off topic to planes, but this does affect all of us:
Please do not use simple passwords for your accounts.
Please do not reuse passwords across multiple account.

The best way to manage this and prevent yourself from getting hacked is 
to use something like KeePass
http://keepass.info/

It's a pain to set up, but once it's installed, it makes your life much 
easier.

>>     I really hope you get this fast. I could not inform anyone about our trip, because it was impromptu. we  had to be in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a program. The program was successful, but our journey has turned sour. we  misplaced our wallet and cell phone on our way back to the hotel we lodge in after we went for sight  seeing. The wallet contained all the valuables we had.

>> I am sorry if i am inconveniencing you, but i have only very few people to run to now. I will be indeed very grateful if i can get a loan of $2,250 USD. or whatever you can afford to spare me from you. this  will enable me sort our hotel bills and get my sorry self back home. I will really appreciate whatever  you can afford in assisting me with. I promise to refund it in full as soon as I return.  You can have the $2,250 USD. wired to me via Western Union. Have it wired to my name and present location, here are the details you need to have it wired to me..
