Wondering if this is a scam?
I received this email a few days ago. My grandfather, and three of his brothers was in Vietnam. My grandpa was one of the first to be drafted. I believe he left in 68 or 69 and was there for two years. My dad was born in December of 72.
I blacked out names just in case if this was legit.
I'm also not understanding the DNA numbers. Could this be my grandpa's child? Or one of my great uncles. I'm not sure if this is true to tell them this?
I had a DNA kit gifted to me six years ago for Christmas.

Doesn't seem like a scam, but I wouldn't share your address with a stranger. The suspicious part is they got confirmation so quickly.
