Sent by someone called Yolanda Malone, who I don't believe I ever dealt with before, I am wondering how this person got my email address, and the ones from a few members on this board. Is this "Malone" someone that one of you would know or even trust? She sent 2 emails, each weighting almost 6MB.

I just got the weirdest spam email...and for once it's about something that interests me. That's right: Joes for sale.

Dude, she (if she is really a "she") uses The Black Major list who sent previously this week an email using all his customer in CC (not in BCC). So now all Black Major customer's email are available to all... ::)
So it's not "magic" that email reach you

So you opened the images and you got no viruses? Is there any vintage international Tiger Force stuff or even Night Force in there?
That is probably the only way the email might not annoy me ;D

Nuts. I guess I'm off the Black Majors email list. I never heard from him.
Can someone PM a copy of his email. I'd love to know what's new.

Either way you slice it, it's still Snake-Eyes.

LJ22 is refering to "Yolanda Malone" selling off eBay.
While Morgadee is refering to The Black Major :
- eBay: http://shop.ebay.com/the_black_major/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg= (http://http://shop.ebay.com/the_black_major/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=)
- Off-eBay :wink:: http://www.flickr.com/photos/47052280@N06/ (http://http://www.flickr.com/photos/47052280@N06/)

Well the tread was about Yolanda Malone to begin with. But that was until you mentionned the Black Major's mailing list :lol:
I realized thanks to your comment that I got confused by Morg's since he didn't use quotes, but still, I thought that my answer was irrelevant enough not to confuse anyone further.

I don't know where he got my e-mail address! He was selling his entire Joe collection.. litterally hundreds of figures mainly army builders.. but at a very high price!!!
I'm still in contact with him.. I'm afraid to buy cause I don't want to get scammed!
Post by: Propergrounds on September 04, 2010, 07:04:45 PM
sounds like a scam.
Where did he get all our emails from?

As Martin-Mtl posted it before, the person most likely easily hacked the mailer's list from the last email some of us got from the Black Major.

In fact, it wasn't "hacked". The Black Major just sent an email to all is customers in CC. So emails of all his customers are now available to all. No technical skills are needed... just to do a reply all. I told him to use BCC next time to avoid other people to use his list. Some people may be honest while other may use that list offering figs with fake pictures... Be careful guys!
If that "Yolanda Malone" was in Black Major list, that person should be a collector. So have access to boards like JoeCanuck. Why not list here or on other boards? Maybe that person is not that honest...
