Off/ dangerous phishing within this list

[mary]

How can you assume we're talking about a "he" from Texas?
Will let you know if anyone comes to mind.

Yes, I received a dangerous phishing email so I'm warning everyone to be on
the look out for "THE ENEMY WITHIN"

The accounts disputes policing team detected that it came from the USA from
the "Texas" area and have just confirmed that it comes from within this very
list.

I can't think of anyone here who is from the "Texas" area offhand, perhaps
we should just ask the culprit to step forward voluntarily so that he can be
properly "killed" according to the list rules.

The ADPT have also detected that the name of the culprit begins with COL,
but their computer crashed before the full name and address could be fully
revealed...They assure me that further attempts will eventually reveal
his/her full name...bit by bit...

I will keep you all updated.
