There is a scam circulating from ASOC Members supposed to be needing money and being stranded - ditch it, someone has obviously invaded their email contacts lists

I had one supposedly from one of my customers (I knew of this scam and ignored it) and now I'm getting 'failed to deliver' returned emails that I never sent, so any email addresses in my customers contact list are now being used to send the same scam. Apologies if anyone gets one from me. (If you wish to send me money anyway, then please feel free to do so.)

OK since then Peter has contacted the member and he knows about it his Sky (Yahoo) email account has been hacked and wiped unfortunately.

Worse as he has some (non motorhomeing) club info on there which has been lost

All you guys on Yahoo email beware, this is one of the reasons BT have ditched Yahoo as their email provider
