Just stumbled across this post on F-Secure.com where people appear to be using Freeola emails for a 419 scam!

You guys might want to investigate the email address etc.

Presumably things like this (apart from the obvious reputation problem) could get Freeola's email servers in trouble/blacklisted?

Hope it helps!

The email address was actually dealt with myself before you posted this by the way :D

Interestingly I picked it up by using Twitter. I thought it was odd myself.

Hi Hmmm,

A very interesting and indeed thought-provoking post.

Interestingly, the '1st Battalion 63rd Armor Regiment' is an American unit that left Iraq in 2004 - the email is either very old or the 'boys' are still waiting for some reply regarding their money problem :-)
