A 'Perfect Match' Apparently?

5 years ago•7 Replies

Dear Everybody,

I was just Checking my 'Junk' Emails, out of Dozens there were One Or Two 'Good' ones. However I Apparently have a 'Perfect Match', yes it's true! One of these Dating Sites- I've never actually 'Joined' one.... I don't think😬. Anyway 'they' have me a Perfect Match- it's a Shame, that I always Use A Lighter😁😁😁.

It's a Bloomin' Good Job, that I have an effective Junk Filter, on my system.... Casinos, Dating, Gay Dating (even stranger), Bit Coin, Insurance, 'Instant Fortune', Clubs, 'Endless' Bingo...... and Just VERY Occasionally a 'Misplaced' Item.

Some of these 'Things' can be amusing, some even Very Much so, but there is a MUCH DARKER SIDE.... Click onto the 'Wrong' site and you could Lose Hundreds- possibly Thousands- of pounds..... and That Isn't Funny! So, unless your are 110% sure, of somethings Validity, leave it in the Bin.

Anyway, Stay Safe, everyone and enjoy the Weather.

😁😁😁. Yes it's funny what you get. I've had several for ' men' problems' and I'm female .On a serious note though, I never open any unless I'm absolutely sure of them. Of course these scammers are very clever at using email addresses so if I see any in there which appear to be from my contacts I check with them.

Dear MadBunny,

I once had a 'Link', from John.... now he wouldn't send 'Just A Link' anymore than I would, without an explanation. 'They' had Hacked In and sent 'Messages' to all the A's on his Contact List.

The most Embarrassing One, I ever had, was when someone- masquerading as me- sent a 'Message', to my then Neighbour.... that I said she was FAT. Firstly she was NOT, Secondly I have a great Respect for her- being as she is a Wheelchair user, AND holds down a Job. A chance meeting, with the Lady, put us Both 'Wise' to what had happened.

I much prefer the, apparently true, Story of the School Pantomime. One School was 'Amazed' to find that details, of it's Pantomime, had Not been received by the other School- it HAD 'Definitely' been sent, it was therefore sent again. Further investigation showed that the Title 'Dick Wittington' had alerted the second Schools 'Web Protector' to Inappropriate Content.... mainly the word 'Dick'. The system had therefore 'Binned' it.... on Both Occasions. As you can imagine, Much Hilarity ensued- appropriate for a Panto. after all!

Hahaha. Loved it.Although I guess it's best to have these safeguards in place. It's still very funny though.

I have just 'logged In', to find a Message from 'Amazon'- telling me there was a Problem, with my Account. It WAS VERY Realistic 'looking'.... Naturally Amazon knew NOTHING about it.

Incidentally IF you do ever 'get' one of these- from ANY organisation- come completely Out of everything. Log back in then contact the Actual Organisation.... Hey Presto NO problem!

By all means Do inform, the actual Organisation, about the Scam- that might Help 'catch' the Scammers.

Stay Safe everyone.

Yes Luna_Child, the Worst I ever had was that My DEATH had been 'Reported in America'. All I had to 'do' was give ALL my Personal Details (Address, Bank Details, Passwords.....). Strangely I DIDN'T give these 'Kind, Helpful People' my Details!

Many years back now I was at a 'Astronomy & Astrology' Week, up near Nottingham. One of the Volunteers, they had several there, had got herself 'Embroiled' (yes this IS the right word) with some Chariton. This Lady was paying, every Month, for 'Healing Information'.... and NOT a small amount either. The 'Healer' had Promised her a Crystal, to assist her, after the next payment had been made.

To cut a long story short we had a Crystal Healer, giving 'Talks', on that very Holiday. A short Chat, from myself- along with about a fiver- secured Three Crystals, from her stock. One 'Aquamarine' for me, a Rose Quartz for my Mother and, the Healing Crystal, for the Girl. I gave the, very grateful, girl the Crystal- on the Understanding 'That She Had NOTHING Further, To Do, With The Chariton'. (For the sake of a Couple of Quid, that sounded 'Good' to me.)

So, to 'Coin a phrase'...It's A Jungle Out There- so be Careful Folks!
