Topic: Scammer Question | |
---|---|
I have been contacted off line by someone who says that saw my profile on this site. The problem is they e-mailed me at my regular e-mail address. I think this person is a scammer. I have two questions...
1. Am I fine in just ignoring and deleting the message and making nothing else of the matter? 2. How would anyone be able to get my a-mail address from this site? Thank you for the help. |

It's spam!! If you get any e-mails from JSH then It's definately spam

no one would be able to get your email off this site, unless you gave it to them..

It is spam they are then going to ask you to go to another site that you have to pay to read their profile.

Thank you for the help. THIS HAD HAPPENED TO ME 7 TIMES!!! Each guy says they saw me here. At first I asked how they found my email. Then, I asked for their supposed JSH profile name, and of course couldn't find it. Told them if that's how they found me, that's how they can contact me, thru JSH. One was from Africa... one from India. After the 3rd hit on me, I just delete. But, I sure am curious about how they go about it all. I think there are lurkers in here.... Got another LONG email today, "I'm new in town, saw you on JSH, living with a friend.... Some are IM's, some email. Creepy stuff!!!!!!!!! |

I have guys trying to IM me all the time on my yahoo messenger that I have never had any contact with before..
I just hit delete, and that's the end of it I guess they just move on to the next person to try and get a response..Don't think its anything to worry about if you ignored and deleted it.. |

Just Say Hi never gives out personal information, if you are receiving spam email here, please report it by using the report abuse button under the email itself. Just Say Hi, also does not allow posting of personal information for this very reason. Mark - forum moderator That being said, if they are contacting you via yahoo messenger, and they are not on your list, then it's most likely a scam, simply report it as such and block. |

Thank you for the help. If they are emailing you at your regular email address it's a scam. Delete and above all do not respond. Mainly these are sent out to grab a valid email address. If you delete, they'll simply go away. (They may try again once or twice, delete those too.) Once you respond though, they know the address is valid and it's nearly impossible to get rid of them then. |
