I simply deleted the message (see below). The grammar leaves much to be desired and it is obviously a spam.

Hello Dear Your advert
How are you today? I discovered you today during my research on internet. I saw your advert and i want to know if your advert is still active.

My concern is if the email list of Glocals has been compromised?

Sure, Rich, no problem! I hadn't been in glocals for years now and was trying to figure out WHAT ad this guy could possibly be talking about.....I had put in an ad about learning Italian once.......I was glad to have seen your spam notice before going crazy trying to find my old ad ;-) .....I wonder how many of us have received this email.....
Have a good day

Hi Rich,
I can assure you the Glocals database hasn't been 'breached'.
I see you posted your email address in your City Guide listing.
Since the City Guide is open to non-members, that's probably where this person got your email address from.
And Kim -
you posted your email address on a forum post about language exchange years ago.
So I guess this person was just going through the Glocals sections which are not Member Only and seeing if he/she can find email addresses to spam.
