[CINC] Santa Cruz day trips cancelled today; weather. rain list security

[Marty Flam]

Kat's email to me about fraud attempt notice is below.  I get them occasionally (perhaps ~ 5%?) from rain list postings from other people, but nobody had told me a fraud attempt notice was on mine. I wonder if today's posting has the same notice or others' experience.   I asked an IT type (that's really a compliment) once  about it and was told not to worry. I don't know if that's still the best info though.  While I keep my security software (Windows Defender and Macafee security suite) up to date, you can never be too sure.  e.g.

All IPCO SCI day trips (9 & 12) cancelled today.  At 9 am a decision will be made if an 11 am camper run will be made for 1 pm PRIS & 130 pm ESCI pick-up. (Gale warnings, 8 foot seas, gusts to 35 20NM SW Ventura).

This (above) was at the bottom of the posting I received from the rain list that you sent out…I don’t know much about hackers but thought you might want to see just in case someone is trying to access yours or my account(s)….or maybe the rain list in general?  Thought it was weird, haven’t seen anything like it before.
