Scam warning mad :x :x
I thought I'd got rid of them but they keep coming back. The name, wording and email address varies slightly but here's a couple of samples. It usually starts off as an email from someone who 'thinks they know someone you' know or 'can't remember how they got your email address'.
They plug away and say the only way that they feel safe is to talk first and please would you phone some expensive number blah blah (0909 numbers, for instance, are a minute) and follow some elusive trail that ends up with you wasting a lot of time money and good will.
Genuine swingers can meet on SH with perfect safety and security. If you get messed about by one of these scams remember it's not swingers who ply such tricks - there's no need. It's hard enough for single guys who are new to the scene, simply cos genuine women and couples often get snowed under with enquiries. But at least on SH you can speak to real swingers.
(These ones came from
)
"did you get my email OK ?? - no joy so far. Are you OK to meet at a swingers party - a few of us are fixing one up next week. If you want details Ive left them on pin number 138167 - hope you may be OK on that xx Julie"
"sorry I took so long to get back - found your email in my junk folder !! We have no luck on the messageboard with handle name and I am hoping for a meeting also, my friends are having a party if you like to meet at a swing party which I like in UK. So lets OK to fix something using the speed date voice mail box (best to echange voices first then if we sound OK to each other we speak live one on one later to fix phone call to talk) My voicemail telephone number is
xxxxxxxxxxx and my voicebox pin number is 557845 you will hear me saying what I am in to and party details of it!! please you to tell me what you are in to and if you are OK on what I am liking (important) Anyway, this is too long time now and I go back to Czech Republic in few weeks now - please email me when you have left a message on my voice mail and I pick it up straight away and get back to you. xx Julie"
evil innocent
Mod Edit: edited out the email address and phone number
You would be better off reporting this to a Mod, who will deal with it.
Also if you keep your email address turn off on the photo ads that should also help
Have a feeling this is not about an SH scam, more about unexpected mails in your inbox. Obviously this is the sort of person our Mods spend far too much time having to chase and close down sad However the examples may help people know what to look out for.

Nooooo - this is not one received on SH. Just comes as email spam. But in comes in varying degrees of difficult-to-recognise-ness. Thought it might be good thing to alert people to it.
set up message rules and stop them even coming into your in box
i have and dont see a thing
opps, sorry for getting it wrong... redface
is anyone actually daft enough to reply to these kind of emails?
I don't call porno or Voice Mail Ads numbers, for partly that reason, they are expencive because ur on there for ages while they reel off the upmteen options and then there's the options within the options and so on and so on.
Some people, DO have a life.
