Hmm.

I got the same letter -- someone must have just gotten a hold of the membership list and is trying to find a poor trusting soul to rip off.

if you're getting a private messge it means the person clicked on the button in your profile here to send you a private message. if you post on these forums, you've created a profile and you can be sent private messages unless you specify in your profile to turn that feature off. this has nothing to do with membership lists.

please report such messages to webmaster at bellaonline dot com and then just delete them.

I started a brand new thread on exactly this PM.... I didn't think I'd be the only one....
Thanks for the advice Rae... <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
