Hi all, just thought I'd put this out here.

I don't know if they got my email address from here or one of the other few websites I hang out at (but given the subject and links, only this and one other site are likely candidates).

Anyway, I received the following spam email:

Hi group,

Has anyone heard of or read this novel? I ordered a copy through my library.
It is a great read about time travel, the Salem witch trials, and a future
devastated by biological weapons.

This book has the look of vanity publishing, so its quality is questionable at best anyway, but I just thought that I'd put this out here, both to ask if anyone else here has been spammed by this person and to warn you about it in case you're next.

Thanks, Eleika. I got it, too. Watch out, folks. I'd recommend not even opening it.

I'm going to remove the link, btw, to avoid rewarding the spam with traffic.
