Anyone know K6MW with a gmail.com account?
Posted: Sun Feb 14, 2016 1:24 am
I am posting this as result of my answering an email from Michael S Wood who is K6MW who inquired about the condition of a Bird 43 2.5 kw element. I answered him but noted that it went to a gmail.com account and listed his name and call. With all the comments lately about spammers using a person's call and a gmail.com address I do not know if this was the TRUE K6NW who contacted me. When I checked 'properties' of the email, it showed the same michaelk6mw@srs.XXXX as originating the email. Then I tried emailing THAT address, and it was returned by my Hotmail.com email server as undeliverable. K6MW on QRZ.com does NOT list an email address. I would like to know if anyone knows him and could warn him that someone might be using his call attached to a gmail.com account.
I DO NOT have need to sell anything except the Bird element, and if you get an email from me, K5YY, concerning a sell of another item in answer to your"wanted ad", IT IS A FALSE Spam email and NOT from me. I am trying to protect K6MW and anyone else who might be contacted by a Spammer using my K5YY call. So, if you know K6MW, please let him know of my concern, as I have not received a reply from "him" at the gmail.com account and got funny feelings when the srs.perfora.net address came back undeliverable. STRANGE scenario.
If you get an email from K5YY, please ask enough questions that you KNOW it is me and not a scam artist, spammer person!
