i highlighted some pretty poor grammar and spelling which basically leads me to believe this is some sort of phishing expedition from overseas. i have NOT opened the "form" available at the "clicking here" link... can someone shed some light on this please?

Some info:
The USOC has decided that the OTC, specifically in C-Springs ... dunno about the others, will be it's own cost center and should make a profit.
As such they are looking to cut costs --- everywhere.

Many sports that are housed there are losing housing for their resident athletes so that more rooms can be made available for dollars producing "camps".

These athletes, formerly know as "Residents" are now being converted to "Day Use" athletes and have to move offsite. The sports can bring in an athlete for,--I think--, 90 days, but then they have to move off campus again.

All of our Pistol shooters were moved out in Feb, and most our Rifle shooters had till may 31, but most have movied off ... a few are holding out until May. You can imagine the chaos in the dorms with campies running the halls at night --- yes even after the 10pm quiet time. Most residents did not want to fight that atmosphere.

You are correct. I work in IT and our CISO would never have allowed such an email. Hopefully it was at the very least digitally signed?
