[PPRAANet] Scammers are at it again

I received the same email -- mine said it was to members @ ppraa . com 
and was from a different presidentbox number @ gmail . com
I have a spamcop account and sent it through spamcop and reported it to 
the email admistrator:

*Re: *173.203.187.106 (Administrator of network where email originates)
*To:* abuse at rackspace.com <mailto:abuse at rackspace.com> (Notes)

It also listed GoDaddy as an intermediate (interested in spam reports)

So hopefully, the network administrator will shut down his or her 
account.  Just got another email from CMRG, and they are experiencing 
something similar.
Also, someone got into their reflector and is asking for donations.

A word to the wise -- if you're asked to do something like this, and 
think it may be legitimate, call the person on the phone and talk to 
them in person.
It's a dangerous world out there.
