    Spam Alert? Warning? Anyone receive it?

     Hi All

     I just  received an email that I opened...UGH. It  read "Check it Out" in the title.......and the Forum Thread was Who Are our Contacts.....

     The  message body contained something about meeting Jenny ___ and how she was a snob and just looking for a date.   The spelling was horrible..it was signed RicksDad.....

     I am thinking this is a spam email........did anyone else receive this?

    Cheers,

    Amy

     Bob wrote a post on that thread. Looked like his writing style to me. I didn't get an e-mail, but I'm not signed up for e-mail updates on threads. I don't believe it's a spam; I believe Bob (RicksDad) wrote it.

    I got it, also. Typically, when I get e-mails, I come into the forum through them. This time, though, I was brought in, but not logged in. Hmmmm. I do agree, it sounded somewhat like Bob's style, but that would be easy to immitate. I hadn't really thought about it being some kind of spam/virus. (Glad I didn't do the log in...)

     Thanks for  forwarding the email Carol.  I had already deleted it from the spam  file.

     Funny thing about it was I do not have email subscription enabled for 

    "Who are our Contacts"  so was surprised to receive that.    And I did the same thing, I clicked on the link and it brought me to a  different part of AnySoldier.

    Thanks Marty for checking this out. Sorry to stir up a ruckus, but it just seemed fishy.  

     

    Cheers,

    Amy

     As  you all know, the rumor of a spam has been put out.

    Just to let you all know, it was NOT a spam, it was in fact me.

    I overreacted to a particular issue, and sent a post, which was quite out of line AND out of character for me.

    I have talked to marty of this,  It will never happen again.

    I am truly sorry for my actions, and hope i will be forgiven and not judged by my child like outburst.

    Again, I am very sorry to you all,  Marty, Thanx for giving me another chance !

    Re: Spam Alert? Warning? Anyone receive it?

     My apologies to you, Bob, for any hardship  the reaction may have caused.   we all get so many "off" emails , and the link reaction  caused some questions.   My post was  only to ascertain or  rebuke (correct wording?) the validity of the post.      Trust me, I totally understand "those" moments when you hit the send button and go OOPS.

       With respect

        Amy

    Cheers,

    Amy
