A number of people have received email offering a fix for a Node.js related issue at a cost of $200 or $300.

Due to the number of different people that received emails and the fact that in some cases having a fix is very unlikely, the TSC believes these emails may be an attempt to scam people out of $ versus a genuine offer.

If you have any knowledge/info that would indicate otherwise please let us know and we'll add that information to the discussion.
