Scam of the Day: "RE: MORTGAGE AUDIT NOTICE" from: "Mortgage Auditing Program, Division of A.M.T."

They list their phone number as: 888-565-1179
They're suggesting that "Your monthly mortgage payment may have been miscalculated and you may be due a refund from either your current or previous mortgage lender"

I've read some info online about a new "forensic mortgage audit scam", but is anyone else getting this crap?

What the hell is this?!

from Glenn Reynolds' Instapundit:

THE FOLKS AT GOOGLE don’t quite seem to understand the Althouse blog. Hey, guys, it’s not a spam blog. It’s been in the New York Times and everything. You should put it back up.

UPDATE: A reader emails with a link to a Save Ann Althouse’s Blog Facebook page.

So I've received a threat from a Marxist - say hello to "David Sautner"


His name is David Sautner. He's apparently a "Dish wash room/Lab attendant" at Molecular Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Missouri (Columbia). djs965@missouri.edu
SautnerD@missouri.eduIt's nothing like what Ann Althouse has received, but it's still a bit disconcerting:

"You look like a pig that oughta' be hung up for slaughter and beaten with a hooked whip. Fascist a*hole.Yeah and that IS what is going to happen to you you smug piece of ignorant shit."


So I got that to look forward to . . .
