They must be working they way through our list!  My son and daughter (both members) got several emails from this place. The last name starts with B, so maybe they are going alphabetically.     What sad people they are to prey on kidney patients and give false hope.

I have banned a member who sent the email. The problem is they can change IP adresses, names and emails, so they wait a couple months and register again.

If anyone else gets spam emails, particularly for transplant tourism, please send them to us to follow up on.

About the only way to avoid this is to block your email in your profile. If someone joins and doesn't post they have all the time in the world to check profiles and gather email addresses.
