VesselTracker.com Info Wanted

[zonian149]

Does anyone have a system provided by this company? I recently received the below offer and I am wondering if it is legitimate. Can't be too careful on the internet these days. Everyone wants some of my money it seems. They had my full name listed in the email. I am registered on their webisite and have been for several years. Thanks for any help.--Gary

"Does anyone have a system provided by this company?"

Outside the shipping industry I don't see anyone who would have a use for it.

"I recently received the below offer and I am wondering if it is legitimate."

Oh it's legitimate, they're looking for you to provide data for the system. Unless your family name is Onassis or Maersk I don't see a need here. For my money into the bit bucket goes SPAM.

Then sometimes when I have nothing else to do I get curious.
