Is this for real or is it a scam? Looks kinda phishy to me. I don't see anyone here talking about a Google Group--

Thanks, g

I've gotten a couple that are similar offering free plans, and wondering why I haven't downloaded it. It says I'm part of a google group but they haven't said WoodNet. No I didn't download any plans.

My guess is I'd be shaking hands with a virus or other malware. To the dumpster with this email.

Thanks guys! g

I've had offers of woodworking plans, too, from something claiming to be a Google group but not WoodNet. I looked into it a little without clicking on anything and couldn't sort out what it was, so I just delete them. I believe the name associated is "Larry Kirk" but I'm not sure.

Larry Kirk is the name on mine too. I took a screen shot but for some reason Photobucket doesn't want to upload it right now.

Didn't come from us. No affiliation with WoodNet, officially or unofficially.

The fellow who is pushing illegal(copyrighted plans) has evidently changed his business name to Larry Kirk. I disremember what it used to be, but it was the 10,000 free plans scam.
