VIEHLAND, INFO TECHNOLOGY PLANNING & POLICY") Newsgroups: comp.sys.misc Subject: RE: INFO-MICRO Digest V89 #167 Message-ID: <8911250802.AA16542@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU> Date: 24 Nov 89 23:29:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 12 I did not appreciate the latest issue of INFO-MICRO. The posting from David Walton to send money to individuals is a mail order con, one that works as long as the string is unbroken, but which fails if on one responds to it. I hope everyone on INFO-MICRO does all of us a favor--SEND NO MONEY and hopefully these con artists will go away. People who respond deserve to be called stupid to their face. Is this illegal? If so, I hope someone drags Dave and all other names on the list into court. Dennis Viehland
