When an email is sent to you, particularly with [no subject] and some random
link (www.example.com), DON'T click on it. Just delete it. If it went to the
list, I'll remove it from the archives, but I can't remove it from your inbox.
You will have to hit delete (I wouldn't report it as spam, because if the
person restores their email account, then you won't see any posts from them, as
they will all be going to your spam folder).
If you ever have this problem with your email being compromised, I will
moderate you so your computer doesn't continue to send out the spam links to
the list. Once you have your computer or email restored, drop me a note
directly to my email, and I'll unmoderate you.
Thanks,

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Catholic or Jewish Roots?
Al...there are tons of Bettencourts in the Bay Area. That's why my research is so hard. My grandfather was John Enos Bettencourt, grandmother Anna Costa. His brothers names are so common, I can't verify.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Important Message about Strange Posts - PLEASE READ!

To: Azores Genealogy Azores@googlegroups.com Date: Monday, August 23, 2010, 8:42 PM There's been a couple of things going around in the genealogy community. One is a possible bot or virus. A message is sent out with just a URL. I think that they are just selling pharmaceuticals. No text, no nothing. If you get one of these, delete it. If it comes through on the list, I will delete it out of the archives, but you need to delete it out of your inbox. There is nothing I can do if someone's computer has a problem and is sending out the URL, except moderate the entire list, looking for messages that contain just a URL. The other is a scam out of Nigeria, stating that the person was robbed in London and needs money to pay their hotel bill. This is an email hack. Don't respond to these messages. Delete them. If you are worried about the person sending the email, email them under their alternate email if you know it, or call them on the phone. This is an FYI since one URL came through to the list. The other I caught and deleted. The Nigerian thing about being in London was on another list and also mentioned by Dick Eastman.
