I received it .. Jude
About a dozen of these get past the list’s filters each day, and the moderators check them one by one. I clicked the wrong button for that one.
I’m told that the mail coming in to the list server is more than 50% spam that gets blocked automatically, so it could be worse.

Greg,
Yep, I received one. Unfortunately, scammers tend to be able to jump ahead of the spam filters. I doubt that there is anyone sufficiently lobotomised to fall for the likes of these though.
Cheers,

Yes, I got it but it hit the delete bin without being opened.

Yes, definitely spam. I accidentally released it to the list when I was moderating, sorry.
I immediately posted a warning not to bother opening it, but didn’t notice that I only sent it to the supposed sender.
