QUESTION ABOUT FSM AND YOUR EMAIL

Thanks! I haven't seen it, but I will inform FSM if I get anything like that.

Bill

Not yet,but recently I got one from Mrs Khadaffie explaining that she needed my help in getting her murdered husbands fortune out of Libya,and that their would be a handsome reward for anything that I could do to help.

And I also heard from a Nigerian Prince with a similar problem,but that's all.

No, and it's NOT good that she got your email. Garth do you have it on your website?

Edit: so I did find a contact email for you on your site, " ask@....".

i don't know if that's the one he/ she used, but I would NOT lay this on the door at FSM.

people don't get this...

all of our email Addie's and most everything about us is online somewhere. Those who know, know where to look.

BTW based on the experience of friends ( really), first you are friends, then photos get exchanged ( you'll get Miss Ukraine 2013), then a trip is planned to do the deed, then she'll need the money  for the plane ticket, and you can guess the rest.

No.

again we shouldn't connect FSM with this and they really should be left out of it.

understand that I know nothing about our friend here, nor does his "secret admirer", but ifI were looking to scam lonely middle aged hearts it's hard to think of a better place to troll than  a special interest hobby forum.

I had one sitting in my Spam folder today.  Came off a tad creepy to me.  The message:

I like your profile in this community network  cs.finescale.com, and I think you are a nice person. i want us to be friends i don't know how you will feel about it,please you can write to me through my email .via: Joy_ngone@gmx.com and i will tell you all about my self including my pictures I'm sorry if i am embarrassing you, i shall explain my self to you
Email via: Joy_ngone@gmx.com
yours in love,
Regard,s.

have not got it yet     but i know it would have to be a joke  no one in their right state of mind would talk to me

G ....

I wasn't connecting FSM to this; I was just alerting all of you guys to this, out of common courtesy, see the message from that man from above:  I like your profile in this community network  cs.finescale.com, and I think you are a nice person. i want us to be friends i don't know how you will feel about it,please you can write to me through my email .via: Joy_ngone@gmx.com and i will tell you all about my self including my pictures I'm sorry if i am embarrassing you, i shall explain my self to you

is it possible  (prob not)  but is it poss.  that this is a joke being put on some of us   we are all friends here       friends play jokes  on each other         if it is/was ok ha ha  but if its not its not funny

We had an interesting case of this sort of thing here in NC. A professor of physics at UNC-Chapel Hill struck up an e-mail relationship with a famous model in Argentina. Apparently he's a genius when it comes to physics, but an utter chump (and a slightly dirty old man) otherwise.  He bought an airline ticket to Argentina to meet the woman.  In the airport, somebody asked him to deliver a suitcase to her.  (I think I have the story straight - at least the gist of it.) Argentinian customs stopped him, searched the suitcase, found drugs inside, and arrested him. He was put on trial and given a jail sentence (I forget for how long). And he never did lay eyes on the woman.

He claimed he could continue his research, and advise his grad students, via his computer from his prison cell, and demanded that UNC continue paying him his salary.  I think UNC actually did for a while, but just a few weeks ago the new chancellor (the previous one having resigned due to the big athletic scandal that's going on there now) cut off the paychecks. I think he's officially retired now; whether he'll get his full pension I don't know.  Probably so.

One more reason why I really don't take pride in being a professional academic these days.

But I'm sure FSM had nothing to do with this silliness.

Many are blinded at times and do stupid things .Why , well we are human and humans do stupid things based on many categories  .Only the experts know why and even they get it wrong a lot .
