"WE" are not doing anything. Blame the news media
that only tells the sensational stories.

That email does not even deserve a reply. NO email
that asks "how rich am I now" deserves a reply.

Suppose you help this guy get his meteorite verified
and classified. Is he going to reward you for your
trouble by selling it to you at a reasonable price or
is he just get on the internet and look for the
highest bidder? People that write emails like the one
you received don't deserve the time of day.
