Re: Julie wants to add you as a friend :)

[Anders Ramsay]

Is anyone else receiving these?  Never heard of Grouply and based on the
fact they ask you to enter your yahoo id and password and a bit if Googling
of "Grouply", looks it is a phishing/address book spamming app, and possible
identity theft scam.  I could be wrong, but would recommend anyone else
receiving a message like this to ignore it.

I've gotten them and immediately deleted them. At one point I think they were legitimate but dunno any more. Either way if Julie wanted to be you friend she should have asked you! :)

Anders,

I get these via half a dozen groups. I treat them as spam.
