I thought you should see this email that came in tonight. Don't worry...being in IT security we see a lot. This is someone out to setup others who may be old, lonely etc...first the friendship and then the gradual pitch about life and things going wrong and the final work up to asking a "friend" to help out with a small loan. This is a classic. Up to you if you wish to post a warning. If so, please remove Bobbies name.

Regards



Here is the email:

Please everyone, go to your USER CP and disable your ability to receive Email from the ATA community forum. YES YES YES keep your private messaging enabled as we do need to be in touch on occassion.
There are people (slime scum) that are predators.
They go onto these sites, see the member listing, and then contact them with a sob story.
Do not take the bait.
Again, the only means of communication should be thru Private message.

I have said it before. Animals are so much nicer than people.

Good night all

I too received this same exact email.....don't know any Doris'...cindy
