Is this spam?

Greetings Mr. Dwyer and a Very Happy New Year.

I was hoping if whenever you had the opportunity you might send me a quick note to *******************.

I seek your counsel regarding the T206 issue and specifically, the backs. I was referred to you by Scot Reader.

Thank you truly Sir.

Respectfully,
****************

I don't know the sender, and have no idea what he is talking about.

Do you know the person who referred the sender to you and did you contact that person?

Spam is what one of the advertisers on here sends out. I have never got any but somehow they got my wifes email and send her spam all the time.

Hi Richard,

Derek Hogue, owner of the website T206 Society, is writing a piece on T206 tobacco brands. He contacted me by email and I gave him your name as someone who I thought had extensive knowledge about that topic, based on your Net54 posts over the years. If I am confused about that, or if I spoke out of turn, I apologize.

Scot Reader

Thanks Scot. That's who sent it. Wasn't sure if it was legit or not.

[sreader3]

It's legit. I believe Derek's article will focus on the history of the brands -- ownership, factories, regional demand, packaging, distribution, regulations, etc. etc. -- where I expect you are better informed than most of us.

I sent him an email. Be happy to help.
