I went back two weeks and didn't find this topic...
I thought giving a private email and requesting to move the communication there was a no-no, a sign of bad intentions, probably scam. Yet this is what I keep getting here and on other sites. Several of the men I have corresponded with I have been able to check out because they gave me their name and I Goggled, found an independent online presence (okay, I'm partial to authors) with photos of the same person but not the same pose. I could understand on sites where you have to pay to email. But here? Why is a separate email preferred to a private one through messages here? Should I continue to be leery?

It is a no no.....continue to be leery.....the mail system here is perfectly okay, we used it<<<<....its great you are Googling them as well....keep up the vigilance....
