Hello!
I'm writing just to warn everybody that scammers have targeted (at
least some of) the people on our mailing lists. So please do not be
deceived into some financial schemes or money transfer.
DO NOT SEND THEM ANY MONEY!
If you receive any such letters, please ignore them.
As much as we know there's no reason to suspect that there has been
any kind of security breach in the infrastructure (mailing lists,
websites etc) of BibleTime, or in the computers of our developers,
friends etc. It is most probable, that the scammer just harvested
information relevant for impersonation (such as names, e-mail
addresses and e-mail signatures etc) from our publicly available
mailing list archives.
Blessings,
Jaak
PS: For an example, here's an excerpt from one of such letters:
> My regrets for this sudden request, On my trip to Tbilisi, Georgia.
> I got mugged and all my belongings cash,cellphone and credit cards
> were all stolen at "gun point".It's such a traumatic experience for
> me.i need your help flying back home as I am trying to raise some
> money.i have made contact with my bank but the best they can do is
> to mail me a new card which will take 2-3 days to arrive here. I
> need you to lend me some money to sort my self out of this
> predicament, will pay back once I get this over with.
>
> Western Union Transfer is the fastest option to wire funds to me.
> Let me know if you need my details(Full names/location) to effect a

> I'm freaked out at the moment.
