I received an email from "miss Samira" who writes that she has seen my profile on wroungplanet.net. Funny, that a spammer would not get even the site domain correctly :)

It was, in fact, sent to the same email address that I have on my profile info here. So I thought I just tell that we might be being targeted right now.

Here are some headers, in case anyone might find them interesting:

This issue has definitely peaked my interest. I'm going to have my team look into this issue.

If anyone else reading this is getting spam email that you think may be related, please let me know.
