I just got the same email. The link to the survey just comes up as a long page of HTML, at least to my mac it does.

I liked the part about me being a "lead user" on this kind of product... especially since I do not now, and never have owned a CUT.

[rockyridgefarm]

[depratt_equip]

[Stonefox]

Got it too. I deleted it. With all the viruses going around I don't open attachments from people I don't know.

 

[pekabu]

I received the same thing

 

[rockyridgefarm]

OK. someone's harvesting email addresses from tbn...

 

[MicroPilot]

sounds like someone is harvesting e-mail addies from this site!

 

[Soundguy]

Yep.. that was my conclusion as well... as I posted this same question on the vintage sites I frequent, and have gotten nothing but 'no' answers.. whereas... well.. we see that it IS being harvested here.

Mine didn't come in with atachments.. but then.. I didn't follow the link either... I'm just naturally skeptical about these things..

I followed the link, its a survey, looks pretty harmless, but I didn't dig much.
