WARNING: "HOME OF THE GOLD HARMONICA" SPAMMING ATTACK!



This is a warning regarding an oturageous spamming attack aimed at
harmonica players.

I received this message at about 5 PM today:
*************************************************
RWdesigns2003@xxxxxxxxx has invited you to join the
                    homeofthegoldharmonica group!
                         (This invitation will expire in 7 days.) 

                    A message from rwdesigns2003@xxxxxxxxx:
                                  Hi Harpers,
           We at RW Designs wanted to introduce our new discussion group
to you.
           You can find out answers to questions from the people who,
other harpers.
               You just have fun discussing the instruments you know and
love.
         Better still you can talk about our gold plated harmonicas or
visit our website at:

                               www.rwdesigns.net

                           Have fun and enjoy the group.

                                   Regards
                                    Ray
                               ( RW Designs )....
******************************************
The website is apparently real.  Since I received this message, my
mailbox has been flooded with close to 100 messages from this list, all
of which are nothing more than administrative messages.

If anyone knows this Ray, tell him that this is an outrageous abuse of a
mailing list.  I promise that I will never be a customer of this site.  

It's possible, of course, that this is a script kiddie or other hacker
just having fun at someone else's expense.  If so, the only defense is
to have Yahoo shut the list down, which i will do tomorrow if the attack
has not stopped.

Regards, Richard Hunter
