I got this in another email list, pretty much same message (so I guess
they're harvesting addresses and phone numbers). Soon there may also be
someone else replying to a legitimate post with a generic answer, and
then saying that they did get "Eric" to come over and that they were
happy with their work

It's a new user to the list, they are gone now.

Sorry about that folks, they actually wrote a long description on why they wanted to join the caving community, go figure, even the spammers are getting better.

I manage a different email list, and in the last 6 months we have had 3 AI spambots attempt to join. Each request is more human-like than the last.

It is only going to get worse.

In the long run, all list serves (like this one) will need their own built-in AI that pre-screens all messages before they reach the humans.

I'm sorry to add another message here, but as a PSA for a group I respect I need to say that learning how to defend yourself again AI scams is now a mandatory life skill. Please take a moment and educate yourself.

If a mod (or anyone) would like to know a method that is still effective for screening against AI feel free to email me.
