[ RadSafe ] Scammer is using radsafe harvested addresses - beware

[Dan McCarn]

Hi Group:

Several times last week, someone called regarding an "error" in one of our
computer systems. When he called while I was home, it turned out it was a
scam and it is very likely he that he got the contact information from
RADSAFE. When I challenged him, he uttered a string of profanities and
hung-up. BTW, he was asking about a WIndows 7 installation, which we have
none. Since I follow procedure and identify myself when I comment on
RADSAFE, my information is already out there...
