Well as subject says.
I think it was lendinghedge.
Didn't ready it, but looks to be some loans thing.

Junk email I got today, and was wondering if anyone else got it?
Only reason I ask is I don't get any junk email. Got a few fake ebay ones when I sold some stuff, that's all.

But this is the first one.

Just wondering, as the phone number/contact in it was from US?

Curious to know, as perhaps that's what the recent joining spam members are doing. Getting our email addresses

Thanks for the info

Well it's the first non fake ebay one I got.
Haven't got them for a week, so I assumed it was from here

Cheers again SM

I have 2 email addresses.
I have put my good one up here but have kept it hidden from when I started and always very careful with who I give it to.
Very really get spam emails on that one.
Have a second email address from an ISP I closed my account with about 2 years ago but before I closed it they got bought out twice and had 2 domain name changes but I kept my old email address. In the shuffles they must of lost the association of the address to my account as I cant dial in anymore but I can still send webmail from my address and receive email to my email program from it so use that one when ever I'm worried about giving it out.
That one gets a bit of spam but still not that much.
