Phishing?

[Andrew Blair]

Appears to be bad. Heres the closest thing I could find:

http://www.genexis.nl/about.html

Its out of the netherlands, and is a tech. company. Perhaps somebody needed a technology name, googled it, and picked the one on top mostly.

But who knows. I googled "Genexis Technologies". A couple of pages on, I found this site: http://www.swxx.net/

However, the site was down, or gone. So I www.archive.org 'd it. I found an oriental site, though, my asian has gone downhill over the past couple of years...

This e-mail looks something like one my mom received from Nigerians having bank account problems (they weren't really). The simplest thing to do is ignore it, unless you have an overwhelming need to buy Singaporean (?) CMU Cams.

Best of luck,

Genexis Technologies.
genexis_tech@yahoo.com
Singapore.

Why would they end an email with "Singapore."? I've never seen a company sign a letter, much less an email, with a geographic location. It's not even an full address, which would make slightly more sense.

Again, the "@yahoo.com" is a huge give away. Most likely fake. Though the odd thing is, there's no link to click on or a website to go to. They just want you to email them back and they didn't request info like credit card numbers.

I think you should ignore the email.

I got the same email this morning.

I deleted it after reading, "dear sir".

I also got that exact same message today. I was very surprised that my Purdue spam filter didnt grab it, but it's been letting through about 1 message every day for the past week.

Hey, I got the same message as well. I'm decently sure that it's spam. In any case, I'm not going to bother pursuing it.

Thats interesting that all these FIRST mentors/students got this E-mail. I wonder if it is somones practical joke or something. I dont know if FIRST keeps any sort of mass Email directory so I wonder how they would even get these names unless it's a inside job.(A joke or something)

Hello people!

Just to let you know... I live in Mexico and I have a small animatronics company (yes... in Mexico). And I have been receiving exactly that quoted mail four times in the last 3 months. Then I decided to do a Google search of the company... and ended up finding your board
Greetings from Mexico! (and greetings to any Singapoorean who may eventually could be reading this).
