I thought it was very odd, as I hadn't given any information to Alliance (I was avoiding anything like that until I had more information on what they were going to do). It didn't occur to me as anything more than odd at first, but the more I think of it the less I like it. Crappy way to do business is an understatement.

How is Andrew Wyatt getting your info?
Thank you.
I'm glad to see other are taking notice.

Honestly when I got that email my first thought was "how did they get my email". I assumed that I must have absentmindedly signed up for it and forgot because I was pretty sure they didn't have my email address. It appears that is probably not the case if others mysteriously received the email as well and makes me worried as to how they obtained it.

Re: How is Andrew Wyatt getting your info?
If our email address were so easy to get to and use for other purposes, I wonder what other info isn't safe? Hmm ...
I'm a bit shocked to see a couple people telling others it isn't a big deal. Privacy is a very big deal. Especially when those email addresses were connected to financial info when donations were given.

Re: How is Andrew Wyatt getting your info?
I would imagine that since he was the president and spokesperson for USARK since it's inception that he would have access to all the email addresses on his personal computer as he would have used it to do emailers. That being said I still don't feel it was very professional to automatically assume it was OK to email everyone as we are all officially on board with this new project. My fisrt thought is they need to get donationations and thought this would get the word out. This was not the way to go about it and I think he did more harm than good to the integrity of this new project

Add me to the list of people who received a email. I have never contacted them or emailed them, mainly because I have not had time to poke at WHY he felt the need to leave on organization because of "differences" yet started another IDENTICAL organization that seems to mimic the first.
I am not super alarmed at getting unsolicited emails, but I do not think it is professional to take the mailing list from the place you're leaving. In fact, I think it may be illegal to do so. I do understand people who ARE alarmed, as personal information being leaked/stolen is a very big deal and can lead to a lot of fraud.
The answer implying that he did not take the list is bogus. If he can't come up with a better line of BS than that, it's no wonder he couldn't convince Congress to let us keep our pets.

Well, I guess that email from USARK explains it. Looks like Wyatt stole the email list. Classy. Real classy.

USARK on their Facebook released the following message:
"The Current Board of USARK has not shared our email list with any other organization outside of USARK. Our list is private, and is used only for Newsletters, Alerts, and other important notices from USARK. Any other use of our mailing list is unauthorized and has been done so, without our consent. If you receive an email from an organization that you have not solicited, please respond to that organization directly, and ask them to remove your e-mail address from their mailing list immediately.
Thank you,
USARK Board of Directors"

The new group claims they stole nothing. Regardless, people gave their info to USARK. Not to Andrew to do with as he pleases.

Then they are liars. I never signed up for any info from that group. It seems only the people who get emails from USARK got the email from USHA.
That is just so wrong..
