Subject: Sherlock Holmes
I am writing to you on behalf of The Sporebook Project, a brand new concept designed to bring a fresh dimension to literature. The new generations of e-book readers have made it possible to view the events of a story from the differing perspectives of each character in the plot, and to follow these characters outside of the main story-line. The Sporebook Project brings an opportunity for anyone to contribute content to existing, conventional, works in the biggest collaborative literary experiment ever undertaken.

The Project has received considerable interests from Sherlock Holmes groups around the world regarding the creation of a new Sherlock Holmes Sporebook based on one of the original novels. We are therefore looking for authors to assist with this particular project and, since we understand that you have previously written Sherlock Holmes Material, would be extremely grateful if you would be prepared to consider becoming part of this particular collaboration.

More information on the fundamental concept can be found at www.sporebook.org, and should you be at all interested in this opportunity please do not hesitate to get in touch with us directly with any queries that you may have.
We very much look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

I got a message about that on FF.net, and it was that text exactly. Someone else messaged me to see if it was legit and I had no idea. Sounds way too much like a scam to me.
