Followup to my last comment – he emailed me back, he was indeed hacked but has since recovered his account. Still be wary of emails with attachments, even if they look official!
(very polite in his email FYI)

@sseltzer3 queried a long time ago, forgot it was outstanding/marked CNR
Monday I also got an email from him, unlabeled no subject line with a PDF. My gmail filter caught it and sent it to spam and detected a virus in the doc. Def don't open if you get this email. I emailed him directly and notified him in case it's a hack, if you get a similar message I'd do the same.
