This is an example of a good reason why those mass emails being sent to someone's whole address book should never appear for all to see, but instead should be put in the Blind Carbon Copy (BCC) address line. All those addresses out there, being included in forward, after forward are just asking for trouble by being picked up by some bad source. That reminds me, I need to contact a few members and tell them to please not ever include me in their mass mailings unless they use the Blind Carbon Copy line and also to please delete all of the previous addresses in the forwards. here's a copy of the email i received from her . You did not receive it from her, but instead received it was from a spammer that has chosen the "from address" to look like her address.

This one is similar to ones in the past I guess they figured if it worked once why not try it again. this link shows what the actual email looks like. Here is a link that might be useful: airline scam

Some companies do offer a "spiff" to realtors. In our state, it's on our contracts that if a home warranty is purchased, the realtor may get a "spiff" from it. It's around $50, depending on the company. But even if a homeowner chooses to offer a home warranty on the sale of their house that didn't pay any bonuses, I still recommend them. I had a seller decide he didn't want to buy one, and a week before his house closed, his HVAC system died. If he'd purchased a home warranty, not only would his buyer be covered, but he would have been covered until the sale of the house went through. As it was, he had to spend $1400 on a new unit. Had another seller who elected to include a home warranty for a prospective buyer. The warranty covered his property while it was on the market. In the middle of summer, one of his a/c compressors failed. $55 (plus the $400) fixed it, rather than him paying in the thousands. It's just one of those things that goes a long way in protecting the property while it's being marketed, and also a "warm fuzzy" for buyers. No, they don't cover everything, but they sure can help!
