Fraudulent E-Mail Alert

Yes, I know this post is suppose to be about domain selling and buying but I have been swamped. Will get to it hopefully later tonight. Thought this warning was more important.

Best Buy issued the following Alert regarding fraudulent e-mail:

On October 10, Best Buy became aware of an unauthorized and deceptive e-mail to consumers nationwide titled "Order ID 37679041" claiming to come from Best Buy Customer Care. This e-mail, which requests personal information, is NOT from Best Buy; Best Buy never requests personal information in unsolicited e-mails. Consumers SHOULD NOT respond.
