I received an email that said:

NOE Bullet Moulds Special for the week

clicked on the email to see what was available, it had a "transfer" button, it looked suspicious but my virus protection is up to date, so I clicked on it.

It was NOT boolit molds, moldable yes, but certainly not boolit molds.

Two instructors at LPI (Linux Professional Institute) taught through the state of Minnesota were somewhat alarmed at higher than normal network traffic in hours they aren't holding class, sure enough somebody had dropped a pron site on their server and it was sending out emails and files by the thousands. Just goes to show even the best can be duped when they are not looking.

How do they think it got on there? Opening an email.

Just deleted it without opening. Thanks 15meter for the heads up.

I just saw it as well, didn’t look anything like the normal emails, so off to the bit bin. Then I see this!

I called and left a message at 730 eastern time and got a response from Al about 630 Mountain time. Said it was not sent by NOE.

Good Glad he is aware of it. I have no idea what he can do about it though. Hope he does not get hurt by it.

I never got that email just the usual ones from him.

I got an email that said it was from Sue at Ponsness Warren. They said it was a receipt for parts I'd bought 6 months earlier. The URL didn't look like it was from P-W. I sent a separate email to the real Sue and got one in return saying they had problems with a hack and thought it was cleared up. I forwarded the bogus email to them so their security outfit could have a go at the new problem. Real Sue sent me a real email thanking me and saying all was clear. Still didn't give me a break on my next purchase. Guess they want a right arm or testicle. Too bad it's the best shotshell loader I own.

All I got was the 404 error also , but later when I went to type in NOE first suggestion was a noebulletmoldslistmanage address which went to a mailchimp page , hate those spam and scam and bogus sites

Easy for me. No extra cash for moulds so just deleted them...
