An Interesting Gather-mail I recived today.

I find this a curious e-mail to recive at Gather.com, to sign up etc at gather takes a bit of understanding etc of the web and english, but I am not sure how much english this woman knows Wierd, I am not going to respond to it, just thought it would be interesting to see if anyone else has been thus blessed?

very strange email - next time she'll probably be asking for money! I'd put her on my ignore list if it was me

Not me. Another person trying to scam on this site. It's getting real old.

I think this one has been going around. It's really a porn site of some sort, I think, if it is the same one that's been going around. Be careful what you click onto.

Is this the woman that was telling all the women she was looking for love last week? Did she suddenly figure out the difference between men and women? Does AWA mean something special?

I got the Nigerian money scam through Gather a few weeks ago. I just blocked the sender.

Emmett, TJ, I got this email too. I think we can conclude this email had nothing to do with the content of our profiles.

M. Emmett, I wrote an article about this too, http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474976809337. I'm surprised that she is still on Gather. Someone on my thread said that by responding to her your gather mail might become targeted again for more of this stuff.

Remember the old Twilight Zone line, " Serving Man", "It's a cookbook ! It's a cookbook ! "

Me thinks her "vission" is somewhat limited, as well as her intellect.

MaryAnne at Gather was trying to get this stopped. I think they were trying to figure out who they registered as here. I received three of those myself a week ago.
