When you get a suspect email (and I would suspect this one!), right click on it and a little window will pop up. Select "View Message Source". You can pretty well tell from that if an email is bogus or bonafide, if you have the patience to sort through all the gibberish. The first thing that caught my attention from yours is "ibermail" - that would be coming from Spain or Portugal (the Iberian peninsula). Unless you can verify that Konstantin has relocated to Spain, I think I'd consign it to junk mail. Better safe than sorry!

I have had a similar experience with an email from Chase bank and didn't look like my regular notices and customer service had me forward it to them - it was spam.

But how wonderful that we are watching out for one another and calling the alert when something seems not as it should be. We were lucky that all is well. Such is not always the case! Thank you so much for calling our attention, and to patrice for checking it out for us. |
I opened it and it brought me to here!
|
Mine looks like this except it only has "Link," not a full www. address. Received today's message board really late!
|
I always have mine by 7:30 am but today it is 3:45 pm. Strange
|
Mine look the same also (except for the first link). Also my name is in the greeting. (I had to look hard to see the difference) Good Catch!!

Now It showes up sometime between 1 and 5PM. If I'm searching for any fabric posting by the time I get it they're already gone. |
Nothing like I have ever received.

This is very similar to what I got last night except mine was listed as "Leisure" then had the Konstantin name further down. I too really hesitated and didn't open it for fear of being hacked. Hacking appears to be pretty bad right now from what I'm hearing.
