Anyone else get an email from "Eric Migicovsky" about their watch face?

I get the usual fan/hate mail over my watch faces, but got one from eric@pebble.com that was asking for one of my faces Source Code. I doubt this is legit and is more than likely a scam, but anyone else get an e-mail like this lately?

Haha, yes this was me. No scam, just wanted to customize the PebbleEye 007 face for a friend :)

Notice it had nothing to do with VCs. Our VC was absolutely not the problem here. And again maybe I didn't make it perfectly clear but I would not have changed anything. At the time it was very logical to make the call that smartwatches were going to explode and that we had a chance to grow with the market.
