So I get this strange group email (2 of them) on Tuesday from someone asking me to go on their boat dive for $75. (Email pasted below). No big deal, except I had a hard time making sense of the email, and figuring out who it was from. (The only dive-related companies I've ever given my email out to was scubaboard, cyberdiver, and ocean adventures, and it wasn't from one of them).
Yesterday I get an email from one of my LDS's (OA in venice) (Email pasted below), saying somone had left the dive shop and maybe emailed members. So now I understand where the email came from, although the email still doesn't totally make sense.
Does anyone know details on these people or on the new LA dive shop? I found a web site, n2narcosis.com, I don't know if this web site is new or not. Also, it lists their address in Playa, CA. don't know where that is, there is a playa vista, and a playa del rey, but no Playa, CA as far as I know. Did anyone else get these emails?

Hello
Just wanted to invite you to dive with these guys (see picture) and 12 of us so far this Saturday the 23rd. The water is still warm (a whopping 68) and will be for the next month or two and then it’s going to start to drop. I’ve attached the details.
I also started with a brand new, shinny PADI dive center here in LA (not N2Narcosis.com). So if you want to book this trip, call the Sundiver 1800-555-9446 or email me here at nitrogennarcosis@hotmail.com and I’ll book it for you.
Open boat $75 w/ three dives (one of the dives will be at Italian Gardens / Giant Sea Bass) / air fills and food extra.
Boat: www.sundiver.net
Directions to boat: http://www.sundiver.net/directions.htm
