I am aware of that.

My points are:

1.      This is on the rise again and you may want to inform your users.

2.      GTA was targeted (8 times) as well - makes me wonder why it was
able to capture so many of their addresses, and, I thought they might
want to know.

3.      With the header data, one can ID a target to block.

Subject: Re: [gb-users] SPAM email exploiting mail services

This certainly isn't new.  It's one of the oldest scams going.  I
have gotten these for years.  I even remember years ago, (before they
discovered email) receiving regular postal mail from Nigeria with the
same type of letter.  There must be a regular course offered in
Western Africa on how to write these letters.

The sad thing is people actually have fallen for this scam.
