Unfortunately, I can't do anything about spam spoofing the Rockhounds List
beyond making you aware that it is happening (I think our filters do a
pretty good job of keeping spam off the list). Be smart about spam and
don't click on random links from unknown sources.

Hi,

I getting email pretending to be from the Rockhound
List generally titled "Sad news from Rockhound List”
or similar title trying to get me to click a URL.

An example is:

"On Mar 30, 2025, at 11:43 AM, Rockhound List
<rellypuspita at smkn3bpp.sch.id> wrote:

On Sunday, March 30, 2025 10:36 AM, Rockhound wrote:
I won't forget this one, ever XXXXXX.

Best regards,

Rockhound List”

Given that is obviously bogus nature of the email address,
I have redacted the URL with “XXXXXX”. You might
warn other list members of this email as in my opinion
it is very likely malicious.

Do you want to post a warning?

Yours,

Paul
