Scam Alert
Hello Fresh Loafers. I need to inform you all who helped with the recipe testing for Peter Reinhart that it looks like the email list has been compromised by scammers. This morning I got an "Urgent Request to send Peter some money so he could get home from England". This is similar to the Nigerian scams we all know about. As amusing as it might be to think of poor Peter trapped in England with out a penny and no one to call, I assure you this is not the case. Please disregard this message.
If you get this email, notice that the reply to address is spelled recipetestars not testers.
Any questions, please message me.
Eric
A follow up by edit: The scammer is asking for $2500 to be sent to a London address in cash.
