This morning, I received spam inviting me to contribute a technical
article 
for an alleged 'security' magazine named 'hakin9'. Ordinarily, I would
have 
Just Hit Delete, but the following paragraph caught my attention. 
 
As you are interested and knowledgeable in IT security matters and you
are a  
famous persona in IT security community we would be  
honoured if you wish to cooperate with us and to write some technical,
IT  
security related  articles for our magazine.  
 
Did anyone else on this list, particularly anyone who has recently
posted to 
this list, receive the same spam?
