Hi Everyone,
I also got an email notifying me that I had sent money via Pay Pal to pay for my membership in Reps. Since I did not do so, I called Pay Pal customer service who informed me that they had no record of such a transaction. The representative thinks it is a phishing email and suggested I forward the email to Pay Pal's phishing department for them to investigate. Send such emails to phishing@...

Larry, I just got an email from somebody at reps saying that they
received my $25 payment for membership to reps. I did not send this
so I don’t know where this came from. Any idea how this could’ve
happened?

As some of you know, I am the online librarian of the Radio

released several, including two from The Todd Collection, which
REPS acquired late last year. Three more are scheduled for
release at present, one next week, another in May and another in
early June. These are the best reason I can think of for you
to join the group.
These releases have generated the most enthusiasm among
current members who are on the distribution list. If you join
now, you will receive the following and more: (1) "The Todd
Collection: First Episodes;" (2) "The Todd Collection, 1947: A Week
of Prime Time Radio;" (3) All 12 surviving episodes of The Bill
Kemp Show, a series circa 1958 which is so rare that it is not
in the OTRR Library, not in John Dunning's On the Air, not
in David Goldin's RadioGoldIndex, and not in Vintage Radio
Logs. You will be one of the few people in the world to
possess this set, and the program is very good; (4) A set of what
are, in my opinion, the best episodes that have been acquired by
the library so far this year. I have arranged these so that
they cover one week, with the days and time slots on which they
were originally aired; (5) "The Todd Collection: The Early Years
(1937-1945)" arranged so as to represent a week of programs on the
days and in the time slots in which they were originally
aired. You will also receive everything else I send out
between now and the date one year from now when your membership
will come up for renewal.
To become a member, type repsonline.org into your browser,
click on the link that takes you to the website, hover on Get
Involved, then click on the link the drops down to join. You
can pay the $25 membership dues with PayPal or a credit card.
When you have done that, you should immediately receive a receipt
in an email. Please forward a copy to me and I will place you
on the distribution list. Also, please forward a copy to Jay
Secord at jsecord@... so he can get you established as a
new member and place you on the list to receive all issues of
Air Check, the group's newsletter, and invitations to attend
all the group's online webcasts.

All this was was a member of the group forwarding proof *they* made the payment to join. It was sent to the group (which is why we all got it), not to Larry and not to any of you individually.
No one but the person who actually made the payment - listed in the receipt email they forwarded - was charged anything.

Thank you Wesley. That seems to be what has happened to everyone else. ----------------------------------------- From: "wwtom via groups.io" To: "main@OldTimeRadioResearchers.groups.io" Cc: Sent: Friday April 29 2022 5:01:56PM Subject: Re: [OldTimeRadioResearchers] /Got the same email!!!
