As far as GR is concerned, it really doesn't cost very much for a person who is genuinely interested in contacting family members, and who has been alerted by a third party that such person(s) exist and can be found, to join on their own penny/nickel!

I'd agree with all that's been said ... be cautious !  I'd say this too even in the case of being contacted by a relly ... I was contacted via GR by a cousin I'd lost contact with as a teenager ... his family tree on GR included some of mine ... with many errors !  I contacted him, suggesting we swap old family photos as I had a lot he probably didnt have (hoping he'd have some I didn't have !)  He replied, telling me how rich he was ...  ::)  ... I think trying to impress me !!

I replied once more, including a couple of family photos I knew he wouldn't have ... and not a thing since !   Ah well, there's nowt so queer as folk !!
