Email From Somebody Claiming to Be Me
"Christina Websell" wrote in message ... "CatNipped" wrote in message ... Which is what I did, Lori, then you went ape**** with me. Tweed No, that's not what you did. You sent me an email telling me I sent that to you and you didn't appreciate it, and then went on to lecture me about taking responsibility for your own cats (and more I'll politely leave out of here). I'm willing to forget it, but please don't pretend that I "went ape****" for no apparent reason. Of course I did, because I thought it was from *you* You're making yourself out to be the injured party here and *you*are "willing to forget it" !! That I replied to a begging e-mail that appeared to be from you and said don't do it and pointed out that said female needed to make sure her cats were catered for. Sheesh. I seem to be the bad one here now. You are if you assumed Lori sent you an email begging for money. We all know she wouldn't do that. None of us ever do that. We may take up collections together for things like vet bills but we do it as a group, not one person emailing and asking for $$. Jill |

The email directing this person to this site was signed "CatNipped" but it most CERTAINLY was not me! -- Hugs, CatNipped You could go to the Kapipal website and lodge a complaint. Regardless of who sent the spam out, "Kati" is likely responsible as she is the one who benefits. It's bad enough she's playing on emotions for what's probably a scam, but faking emails is way over the line. Sherry I just did, thanks! Even though I reported this to the site, I don't have any hope that they'll do anything about it - the whole site is about "how to get money from your friends". Ben has identified her, she lives in Germany, and is a known scammer - and the fact that she is still out there scamming says that nobody has been able to pin anything on her yet or that the international laws about this are still unclear enough to let people get away with this crime. -- Hugs, CatNipped See all our masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped Well, none of us was affected by it nor did anyone here (AFAIK) send money to this fake Catnipped, so I'd settle for having reported it and move on. Jill Exactly what I did! ; -- Hugs, CatNipped See all our masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped See the RPCA FAQ site, created by "Yowie", maintained by Mark Edwards, at: http://www.professional-geek.net/rpcablog/ Email: L(dot)T(dot)Crews(at)comcast(dot)net |

Not everyone knows other RPCA'ers as well as you may. It sounds to me like Tweed made an honest mistake in believing it was Lori who sent it, and making an honest mistake is not a crime. -- Joyce God's original plan was to hang out in a garden with some naked vegetarians. -- Seen on a wall poster |

That's what did it for me I didn't think Lori would forward such a request but you never know so I replied with the basic message "Is this from you?" as I said the whole thing didn't look right and when it bounced I knew it was dodgy Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

Jill, you did not get this e-mail, it was not for her vet bill but someone else. It was very convincing that it came from her and I was very surprised, tbh. Anyway, I did not appreciate it and I told her so, believing she'd sent it. I make no apologies for doing so. If Lori *had* sent it, I told her off for a begging e-mail, and as it turns out that she didn't, she is now aware that someone has hacked into her computer to do this, as my private mail address was used.

Tweed We've done several virus/trojan checks on my computer since and have determined that nobody has hacked into it - I have no idea how they got your email address (or Lesley's either since I didn't have her email address on my computer). I can only assume i was someone who has researched this group well since you used to, in the past, use your correct email address. So, point of order, that email was *NOT* from me it was from an email address similar to mine as you found out the first time you tried to reply and it bounced (you had to come here for a thread with my email address so you could reply to *that*). Look, Tina, I don't want to have a big row with you. After this, I'm letting it drop. But this accusation hit one of my "hot buttons"... when my ex husband left me, skipped the state and did not pay child support, even dropped the children from his company insurance, I was left with the responsibility of caring not only for myself, but for them as well. I got a job paying only $8,000 a year *gross*. One time I was running short and asked my mother for a loan of a *single dollar bill* to pay for my children's school lunch. She refused me. That hurt me so badly that I vowed before God that I would *NEVER, EVER* ask anyone for money for as long as I lived. I haven't done so... I haven't done so now. -- Hugs, CatNipped See all our masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped See the RPCA FAQ site, created by "Yowie", maintained by Mark Edwards, at: http://www.professional-geek.net/rpcablog/ Email: L(dot)T(dot)Crews(at)comcast(dot)net |

You should be glad I told you. No-one else did. Tweed |

Lori, if anyone has the original email, they can start a new email to me (address not munged) then drag the orgigion to it (so it becomes and attachment) and i will look at the source code for you. I do this contantly in Freecycle so we can identify spammers and hacked accounts. Thanks! I just sent you the headers that Tina sent to me - if you don't receive it let me know and I'll try again. Yup, just sent it back. Thanks! Folks, open server in the Czech Republic, City Mesice Latitude 50.2 Longitude 14.5167 How it got to there is masked pretty well but if any of you think Lori knows how to pull that one off, you've got rocks in your heads! (grin). Lori did not send that message. She is a victim of what looks like a spoofing attack. Lori is sweet but she doesn't know computers well enough to even *begin* to mask an IP address then spoof off an open server with it. Carol -- |
