I've started using the Meetup service through getting involved in OpenCoffee meetups, I went to the London one yesterday but got called away which was a shame, however I'm really looking forward to the Leeds one being setup by my good friend Imran, if you live near Leeds please get yourself there !
I want to make clear this has nothing to do with Meetup themselves but this morning I got a familiar spam mail appearing to come from them:

Apparently someone in Kuala Lumpar has died etc etc, I reported this to the customer service department at Meetup, in less than 20 minutes the account has been deleted, good riddance I say and I'm sure there's some inner mocking going on here with a name like Pratt or perhaps not and he just is one...
Thanks to the excellent Tammy at Meetup, it's a shame when idiots try to spoil the experience that others have built
