I am 100% sure that this did not come from the station indicated, in the message 
properties, the
originating IP address is from Lagos, Nigeria.

also, I never take any email seriously that is sent to "undisclosed recipients", as this 
one was. I am
pretty sure you will find Ted at home in Illinois, Wisconsin or whereever he lives 
totlally oblivious
to all of this.

Guys maybe Ted is not the one who wrotte that scam,I have talked to him on 40M several 
times and he seemed to be a very decent guy,there are scammers all over the net and I will 
say this is one of them.Don't blame him yet until we know all the facts.
Its just a thought.

Interesting how the scam came from Ted Orant, WB9JOX, who is in fact a K1,
K2 owner and no doubt a list member. How's that work?
