Same here.

Having said that, I think sellers need to be more careful to nip the increase the scamming in the butt. There are a lot of people asking for lists and sellers just sending them at will. I won't send anyone access to our link availability if I cannot verify them beforehand. I would recommend other sellers do the same -- in doing so you lessen your risk.

Sending lists to people you do not know, or cannot verify, simply increases the risk that people are scammed on the backs of your name/site/reputation.

Due diligence goes both ways these days, for both buyers and sellers.

That said, I also received an email from the same guy noted above. I put it where it belongs, in the trash.
