Warning: Fraudulent Package Delivery Messages Sent by Email or Phone

This is a warning regarding fraudulent email claiming to be from the United States Postal Service. I think it's very serious as so many of us doll collectors sit impatiently waiting for our latest purchases to arrive. 

This is more than SPAM, it's a serious attempt to mess up your computer.
I have copied this directly from the USPS website.

BEWARE OF SPAM!

BOGUS DELIVERY MESSAGES E-MAILED TO
POSTAL CUSTOMERS

Some postal customers are receiving bogus e-mails about a package delivery. The e-mails
contain a link that, when opened, installs a malicious virus that can steal personal information
from your PC.
The e-mails claim to be from the U.S. Postal Service and contain fraudulent information about an
attempted or intercepted package delivery. You are instructed to click on a link to find out when
you can expect your delivery. But Postal Inspectors warn: Do not click on the link!
Like most viruses sent by e-mail, clicking on the link will activate a virus that can steal
information—such as your user name, password, and financial account information.
What to do? Simply delete the message without taking any further action. The Postal Inspection
Service is working hard to resolve the issue and shut down the malicious program.
If you have questions about a suspicious postal email or wish to report spam, contact the
Postal Inspection Service at spam@uspis.gov.

Mauve Absolue and Forever Veronique

The last doll of 2011 has been offered to W Club members as a lottery event. There are 700 dolls and I'm guessing that even though that is a high number for a lottery, some will not get picked. I haven't been picked for a lottery in more than a year which seems strange because I used to win at least one chance in every lottery. I entered with both of my memberships.

Forever is the beautiful, original Veronique sculpt on an FR2 body. The gown is a duplicate in a different color of the Tenth Anniversary W Club luncheon surprise doll Evermore. So we will have an Evermore and a Forever and that's a good thing because there was a quite an uproar over the announcement of the discontinuance of Vanessa's and Veronique's sculpt.

 I believe this doll is meant to channel or reimagine the original Mauve Absolue seen in the 3 images that follow. Forever is very pretty but really doesn't come close to the original.
