Let me start by saying that I haven't bought anything from getpinz.com in a long, long time. But this morning I got the email below which was sent to the email address that I used when I made my purchase (it was unique to the getpinz.com site). I can't imagine that the DEA would send an email from 'drugdealer@dea.com', the email was sent from storesecured.com rather than anything .gov, FDA and DEA aren't properly capitalized, there's no contact information, etc. so I'm not exactly convinced that this email is legit.
The bigger issue for me is that someone has apparently gained access to a customer list and has at least some basic information about me. The getpinz.com website isn't there anymore and I'm not exactly sure what's going on here. Anyway, I'm not exactly losing sleep over this but I'm pretty unhappy that my contact info was in a place where someone had access to it & thought I'd share the info.
