Name isn't Randy, doubt he'd use a hotmail account, so probably not.

Phishing attempt?

I doubt it's him, sorry. Should have asked for his gpg key.

Today I learned that I'm worth impersonating... Huh. Luckily, a lot of the important accounts already belong to me, since I've always assumed that this would happen.

And yes, as Kluge mentioned, my name is not Randy and I'd never use a hotmail account. Also, I will always GPG-sign things for you upon request using my OTC key (http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewgpg.php?nick=Maged). I usually do that automatically if it's a business deal, though.

Did you ever use MTGox?

There was a big email address leak.
