About a FAKE RHS Alumni Site

A word from your REAL Bomber webmaster, Maren:

This has happened to countless Bombers so it's time to put this information on our Bomber Alumni website so everybody knows what to watch out for.

I got TWO of the first message... one sent to my earthlink email address and another sent to my cheerful address.

I don't know where (or how) you got my email address for this, but I'm the webmaster for the REAL Richland High School Alumni website... I want you to STOP sending email to me... and to other alumni of my high school... You aren't even a grad of our high school.

Thanks,

I responded:

Yeah... and the REAL Richland High School Alumni website is at RichlandBombers.com.
See, if you were a REAL RHS alumni, you'd know that our mascot is an A-bomb (and why).
I keep wondering WHERE you are "harvesting" all our alumni email addressees...

Looks like a 3rd grader put that together. When are you going to get a REAL website like ours? They ought to REALLY BOMB that thing you call an alumni site, LOL.

I didn't respond to that last comment, but wanted to let BOMBERS know what kind of a NON Bomber we're dealing with at this "new" Richland HS Alumni website...

Wanted BOMBERS to know NOT to click any link in an email that you receive from this webmaster@alumniarchive.com Bomber cheers,
