[luau] 802.11 Security Workshop - Nov 20

[Virgil]

Scott,

I was tricked into thinking that this was a free workshop given to the
public. HOSEF or any of your postings does not tend to trick people in
anyway, shape or form.

This is spam to me because I was made to believe something that it was not
and then I've gotten the same offer again from this email forum.

Virgil
