Dear all-

One vigilant contributor has reported receiving the following fraudulent 
email which pretends to be from the ibiblio.org support staff.  Please 
exercise a healthy skepticism, and if you doubt the authenticity of an 
email, it will never hurt to double check by contacting help at ibiblio.org.
