I don't think I am on the list, but I am probably in IT's address book, and I have been getting the spam also. Unfortuantely it sounds like a worm/virus grabbed your contacts. Annoying but harmless.
The good thing is that the spam email is pretty obvious - just a one line link to a strange site. It should be easy to distinguish from anything IT does send. The bad thing is you don't want to filter it out or you'll miss the good emails.
I would suggest a new address, like add a number to the current name, or use gmail for these alerts, just until these emails die down. Then go back to the old one.

Most of the e-mails that are sent from contact list usually have "No Subject" in the titile area. To me that's the red flag that say's this is not right. My father was receiving these from me that way. I noticed I was receiveng them from IT that way as well.

Changed my password to something more difficult. Do you think this will work? I would do g-mail, but with 84 TSP contacts plus all my friends, what a pain that would be to re-enter................:nuts:
From now on when I send out a transfer e-mail, I'll put "IFT 10-27-10" or what ever the current date is at the time. If anyone gets anything else, just delete it................

Oh cool.
Let's see if the password change fixed the problem or not and then I'll switch over if it doesn't..............might even go to Outlook.......

Oh cool.
I'd send a note to yahoo and see if their email system was compromised. I heard they were upgrading.
sending the header to you in a pm.
Here's some reading material:

Be safe, I hear it gets windy up there from time-to-time.....maybe drop over to the CME and visit some of my money!
Have a great weekend!

Yepper, my last day is Nov 14th. Heading back to Texas on the 21st, until at least spring. No more bad winters for me. :blink:
Not sure if we're gonna head into Chicago or not.
You have a great weekend also!

Say what? I got a sell signal on the 26th. Nothings changed..............besides, I would never buy equities in the middle of a signal change, I would just wait for the next one.

Yea, but your last TSP IFT shown was on the 21st when you went 100% G. I understand your being out of IFTs for the month of October. I think what these guys are questioning is that if you have a "sell signal" why didn't you go to 100% F on Nov 1st when you had IFTs available. Logic says that if you would not sell F-fund if you already had it on a particular day, then you would buy F-fund if you didn't have it on the same particular day.
