I don't know how these guys got a hold of me...

So this is either nefarious spam, or something else, i have no idea..., but i got the following email from a site called www.commoncircle.com

So this is weird for a number of reasons aside from me never having seen or heard of their site, let alone shown interest...

but on top of that, they used my correct name in the email,

and i haven't ridden a bike since i was nine years old.

whois just drops me an IP w/ no info..

before i send them a snappy response, i was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on whether this could be IG and more subtle than im catching on to..

[edit - fixed the quote tag - kona]
