       Officials with
            the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS issued a
            statement Thursday warning people around the world about the
            circulation       of e-mails that claim to be from the
            organization and       include detailed information
            about recipients or donations.       "These e-mails do not
            emanate from UNAIDS, and are not in any way       associated
            with UNAIDS projects or events," according to a statement
            from the agency. UNAIDS is asking anyone who receives the
            e-mails to       forward the messages to the agency at
            unaids@unaids.org.
