{{{hi prince.org,
in the last days i got two strange mails (see below) from the npgmc. as the emailheaders (included at the end of this email) are totally different to "normal" club mails I´m concerned it these are official emails? did anyone report you something similar?
best regards
oliver

[Noone else has reported this yet, but they are almost certainly fake, yes. As with all e-mail, you have to be careful! Nice catch, and thanks for alerting us to this. -Ben]

thanks for the heads up!!

Someone should reply and see what happens

No doubt from one of the wierdo clones that ramble on in the forums over there. I've actually known people who REALLY THINK they are friends / lovers with Prince even though they have never even met him. Like that one girl who jumped the fence at Paisley and when she was apprehended told the guards and THEN the police who were ARRESTING HER that she was Prince's WIFE!!!

I love Prince to death but his fans are losers and he's a wacko for thinking he can run his site the way he is.

That's what I was thinking too.

Why post this email here? Send it to the known NPGMC email addy and let them confirm or deny .

hi,
that´s what I did, but - as usual - I didn´t get an answer from the club.

You realize you just called yourself a looser right?

Aawww, don't be so hard on yourself!

that's ONE of the motivation for i don't join his freaky club..

Very fake! The club always signs out love4oneanother and Peace. NOT "in the name of prince- the npg-music-club."
