Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security. Read all about it here: http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/ Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated!

Hey you got the same donation address as me. Must be a coincidence related to the bad random generator on Android

I haven't receive it (yet), people who receive this email have their email address made public? Any reports of a database compromised or BitcoinTalk?

Simple address spoof; not legitimate.
Also the forum is drowning in BTC right now.

That's one of the reasons why I'd not recommend making your email address public on a web forum. IT just makes you an easy target for SCAM-SPAM. CONTRIBUTOR BENEFITS - 0.1+ BTC = Donors crown before nick (everywhere your username is shown)
A Donator's crown would suit me nice, though ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) And while I'm dreaming, I'd like to have a pony.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

Surprisingly, no one tried actually replying to the email. If they had, they would have reached me. (This is not a good way of contacting me, though -- I may disable theymos@bitcointalk.org in the future.)

If it's a mass mail, someone should send 0.00000001 without fees to that address with a warning note like "IT'S A SCAM" and this thread's link. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

There's a simple way to shut down this kind of phish: implement DKIM and DMARC. Firstly, you make sure all mail being sent by bitcointalk.org is DKIM signed. It just boils down to configuring your SMTP server and DNS, more or less. Then all mail is cryptographically signed automatically. Secondly, add another DNS TXT record that specifies a DMARC policy: http://www.dmarc.org/overview.htmlThat tells mail engines that understand the protocol that bitcointalk.org should only be sending DKIM signed mail. You can also request reporting. Once you have that configured, compliant mail systems (like gmail and yahoo mail) can be told to automatically spamfolder any forged mail and mail a copy back to you, so you find out about phishing attempts immediately.

Bitcointalk.org SPF: v=spf1 mx a ~all For what its worth, I didn't receive this email and I've checked my spam folders to verify. Maybe this is an argument for going back to doing a hard fail using "-all" instead of the soft fail on "~all". It's weird Google doesn't even consider this email the least bit suspicious though. It just says "spf-pass" like there's nothing wrong, using wedos.net as the authenticating domain even though the Reply-To: and From: are clearly from a domain NOT associated with wedos.net.
