Dear ASA Council Members:

 There is message being sent out to our members that is disguised as an ASA email message and just want to let you know that if you provide your information on the subscription form it will be stored on someone else’s server. The subject line of the message is “ASA & BPA Members Special Promotion” and below (in red) is a sample message you might have received.

This is a “phishing” attempt to get our members’ information by using a copy of the ASA website to deceive users. The ASA attorney has sent a cease and desist letter to the  company asking them to remove all reference to ASA as well as trademarked logos and marks.

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter.

Thank you,

Steve Walker

Amateur Softball Association

A Quick note to everyone...

There's an amazing offer for all ASA members at the ASA site you may want to 

see. It's a limited time offer. Click the link below to view on the main site.

Visit (removed link) and complete the drop down to gain access to 

a special pre-launch information. Then download the toolbar to gain access to 

the specific information. They are launching an incredible income opportunity 

with this training concept this coming August as well.

For anyone in the sports industry, this will be a no brainer!

Thanks and continue with a great summer!
