I got an unsolicited package from Ken Brown with runoffs photos in it while I was on vacation this week.
I probably don't have to tell anyone, but - in case you aren't aware - this type of phony invoice is a violation of USPS regulations

Anyway - if you get anything from this guy, you don't have to respond, or send the pictures back, or pay him anything.
I'm going to eMail him and ask to be removed from whatever list I'm on. If I get any grief I'll just take all this stuff to my local post office and file a complaint.
I assume the SCCA, or RA, or the region hosting the runoffs - sold or gave him my home address. That's a separate issue. I'm going to send (yet another) note to the CRB asking how my personal home address left the SCCA and went to a solicitor.

Code:
Any otherwise mailable matter that reasonably could be considered a bill, invoice,
or statement of account due, but is in fact a solicitation for an order, is nonmailable
unless it conforms to 1.2 through 1.6. A nonconforming solicitation constitutes
prima facie evidence of violation of 39 USC 3005.
