I got an email in my regular email box, not the one here, from someone who said they saw my ad on here. How is that possible? I mean isn't the only way someone can communicate with you on this site is through your site email and not your personal one? I don't have mine listed on my page AND I don't know this person. Anyone else had this happen?

It is very well possible that if your listed on any other singles site, with different features than this one...he could have recognized your picture...and may have obtained address from another site. Just an idea...good luck in finding out.

Probbley a scammer. Delete them. I can't figure out how they could get your regular e-mail though. That doesnt make sense. Anyone can see the posts here though. Perhaps it is someone who knew you at one time or another???

It's either Someone you know, who doesn't want you to know its them. The guy is a stalker and looked up your name and personal information on other sites You are on multiple dating sites where one had your email address visable at some point They hacked the site to get your email (this is pretty much not going to happen) I'm betting it's someone you know, or that you had your email addy on your profile here and then later removed it.

None of the above. It is very concerning. I only use that address for this kind of stuff.

You don't have to have an account here to read the forums.

I have had the same scam happen to me...lol...and the woman did not even have an account on here. I think that they just give it a shot in the dark and hope to luck out once in a while....I might could get it out of my trash bin and give you her email addy's
