Re: Are Any Materials Shipped for WWRUG?
I'm not aware of any.

Re: Are Any Materials Shipped for WWRUG?
That's spearphishingalmost everyone is expecting a package.Once you open it, you're toast. It preys on peoples curiousity. It generally comes from UPS/UPS/FEDEX, etc. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Kemes, Lisa A DLA CTR INFORMATION OPERATIONS Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2013 9:35 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Are Any Materials Shipped for WWRUG?

Re: OT: Are Any Materials Shipped for WWRUG?
I don't remember ever receiving any pre-conference materials. I am not an authoritative source but it sounds fishy.

Re: OT: Are Any Materials Shipped for WWRUG?
It sounds very fishy indeed. We ship no materials before the conference to attendees, and almost everything goes straight to the conference center anyway. I will take this as a heads up that if for some strange reason we do for the first time, we should warn people as well. We have quite a few sponsors signed up already, the presentation kiosks are already sold out for the conference, the papers will be posted to the web site very soon, and I hope to have our line up of Keynotes settled by the end of the week (not counting any surprise attendees during the conference). Although I have only seen some of the papers for this year, they looedk like a stunning group and we have [more] panels this year for longer fuller discussions of some topics.

Re: OT: Are Any Materials Shipped for WWRUG?
I received two emails today that were sent to spam appearing to be from FedEx with the subject Delivery Status Notification. I typically don't get these spam messages. It didn't mention WWRUG but I wonder if there is a large scale delivery spam attack going on. I am jealous, yours was customized :) On Wed, Jun 12, 2013 at 2:02 PM, arslist arsl...@danielbloom.ca wrote: ** It sounds very fishy indeed.
