Just had an email on my address that's got me kind of worried...
Morning matey (or afternoon, depending on when you get out of bed!),
I found this newsletter and thought your warped sense of humour would
like it, especially as it has a lot of sex humour and pictures!...lol.
The links it sends you to (if you can be bothered to look!) show you
some of the latest sex toys on the market, something I thought you and
your new lady might enjoy on the swinging scene.
If you are going to buy anything, make sure you join the site because
then you can make them an offer on products.
Got to go as Christmas present shopping is waaaaay over due,
cya soon

It worried me because a) I've never seen the email address before, b) it has a clear reference to swinging and c) it has an attachment (which I haven't opened as I'm pretty sure it'll be a virus - its a .mht (??) file) and d) Nobody told me I have a new lady!!!
Just wondered if I was extra special in receiving it, or whether anyone can shed any light as to why I might have received it?
I never reply to ads, I don't have an ad of my own and my email address isn't shown on my profile.
Yours confusedly,
Angel Chat :confused:
No - but I HAVE received a different kind of SPAM mail on an address I only use for SH. Have reported it to the mods.
Rs :color:
I'm sure the spammers lift email addresses from sites such as this. I only use my email for swinging so where else would they get my email address from? I get maybe 3 or 4 spams a day.
Recently I had an email from someone saying they were in Nigeria. Yep, one of THOSE scams. After reading the biggest load of bullshit I finally got to the point in the last paragraph which was (you guessed) they wanted my bank details.
Are there really still people around stupid enough to fall for this kind of crap?
dunno
Is it likely that someone you know would have your email address in their address book? It could be a variation of a mass-mailer virus that sends emails to all of the hosts contacts.
BTW....This is what an file is. You might want to search for the attachment name
Anyway, well done for not opening it!
I just checked my email and I've received the same one as you Angel Chat in my Inbox.
Haven't even bothered to read it, just deleted it. The fact it's 90K is enough to tell me it's spam.
Stay cool!
wink
It is a common misconception that as long as you don't open attachments you're safe. This is not true. It's not even safe to use the preview function on newsreaders such as OE. I never open emails from anyone I don't know, and I'm careful about opening emails from people I do know because the sender's address can be faked, and viruses can be passed on inadvertently by people who don't know they've got them. If I ask someone to send me something via email, I ask them to put something specific in the subject line so I know it's genuine.
I may be paranoid, but I'm also virus-free biggrin
I got the same email in my inbox....I just deleted it straight away.....
i have just this very second got this email!
its got "sarah" as the sender! luckly for me ive read this thread before opening it
be being me would open the attachement with out thinging
Cheers angel!!
rotflmao
i'm halfway through a post complaining i hadn't got one, feeling all left out, and what pops up just as i reach for submit?
adios sarah! got to get up earlier than that in the morning to catch me out! in fact, best not go to bed at all! :lol2:
n x x x :P
I'd just like to say, my mail was also from "Sarah" and if anyone gets any mail from me it will say it's from "Angel"
HTH
I couldn't say if I had a mail like that or not.
If it even looks remotely dodgy it goes in the bin unread.
Seriously, I delete over 90% of my mail without even looking at it (beyond the title).
I think I will reserve space for all senders of spam in the rocket ship I am building to send Linda Barker and Madonna on a one way trip to the sun.
Mind you, that might be a lot of people and rocket ships aren't cheap to build.
Perhaps the spammers should just be thrown into an abandoned puppy mine which would then be filled with lava or, beter still, coca cola.
got this one myself as well so could be someone harvesting emails addys off here.
There was me thinking my luck was in lol
My registered email address isfor this site only and I recieved the same message so no doubt it was harvested from here.
I was reading a site the other day which was giving tips on safer web surfing. The site was the Washington post but you ned to register so I have copied them and put them up on my own web space, hope they are of some benefit.

Oddly we got the same one this morning!
Mine arrived this morning too but I had read your thread and deleted it straightaway
thank you
Boo Hoo.
I feel all left out, I did not get an email from sarah.
Although I have got in my trash folder 107 emails from yesterday and today.
97 unopened or even looked at, as they go straight in the bin.
Of the ten that were opened, they were mostly work related.
Prooving that spam filters do try and do thier job.

Me too - all lonely again now sad
Death to all spammers mad
I'm being bombarded by this message and others pupporting to be from pUOZP9PGWvYcxrgK thing isone of thr names and addresses being posted belong to someone I have actuallymet!!!!!!!! A genuine contact whose name would appear to have been lifted from a dating site.
I just rushed off to my account to see if I got one......
:cry: nobody loves me :cry:
Thank you Angel for your post, I had the same email today.
I chat and mail with a Sarah so would have opened it without thinking but for you kiss
Hi
anyone getting email from 'Sarah' is a spam, I would rather pm people and email, and also if in the next 2 to 3 weeks I'm away anyway.
So as Mark and others have said delete
redface I once got a spam e-mail that was in German, from a lovely lady called Ina, who said she was desperate to meet me, and would I ring her.
Being a nice polite chap, I spent ages translating it, doing a reply and sending it. Explaining how it would be impossible to consumate our relationship because of the distances involved.
Then I mentioned it on here.
My, what laughter there was! surprisedops: :oops: :oops:
lhk
I haven't got one :cry: Although I used a account to register on here. Dont know if that makes any difference?
yes,i also had one-just deleted it straight away,you cant be too careful. :shock:
Yep I got one.....I emailed back asking who they were (as I did not recognise the email address). Having seen the replies on here I know I won't hear anything!
I would suggest emailing back is a good tip before opening any email you are uncertain of but would like to find out if it is genuine. Of course the usual maxim applies if you are not entirely convinced at any point then delete it regardless.
