In addition, don't ever think, for a second, that anyone in the family would contact any of us in this manner. They would call personally. I reported the problem but it took some doing because the instructions for doing so were difficult to find. I also reported it to msn which was easier.

Then they go to Facebook and see if anyone has that surname. They pick a person from the family, Trauntveins are not hard to connect together because there are so few of us. In all of the world there are only 40.
