I just checked my email and at about 7:50 PM on 1/20/2011, I received an email from a certain "Monica Ogwo" that reads like this:

The fact that she found me by means of WP is a bit eerie... not to mention the fact that she's probably at least 20 or 25 years old and female, and I'm a fifteen-year-old heterosexual female.
Reply address was to a Yahoo address, yet it also included a 'nih.gov' address.
Scam? I think so.
Has anyone else gotten these emails?
Several people. I suggest you turn off the email option in your profile. Anyone (members or otherwise) can send you emails, and once you are on someone's spam list there is no undoing it. Most members don't have the option ticked to allow contact by email.
