Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections. A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. you might need your magnifying glass or a high powered microscope to read the franking over the stamp: above the stamp it reads "secure your dog" and across the stamp "for safe delivery" - this was on a Christmas card that arrived through the mail from my brother. Excellent advice I think. an "Aussie style" Christmas window display seen in the city by "no-one" David Jones Store has its traditional Chri...
Darn people who want to scam others.
ReplyDeletepeppylady (Dora); it's just so annoying.
DeleteMaybe call The Geek Squad and see if they have any suggestions????
ReplyDeleteonly slightly confused; there's a geek squad? In the phone book?
DeleteSo sorry you are being tormented and thanks for the heads up.
ReplyDeleteArkansas Patti; it isn't me being tormented, it's all you people out there who are receiving emails supposedly from me. I don't get the emails myself, only a heads-up from someone else who got one.
DeleteThey will always be with us.
ReplyDeleteJoanne; they really need to find something else to do.
DeleteYou are having a hard time of it lately. Thanks for the heads up.
ReplyDeletejenny_o; I heard from someone recently that has more than one email address and apparently has been getting spam emails "from me" for years now :(
DeleteI try to be cautious. If it is a name I do not know, or a business, I don't open it.
ReplyDeleteSusan Kane; that's always the best way.
DeleteAre they hacking back into your account, or have they copied your contact list and kept it and just keep sending stuff out periodically? Either way, it's annoying.
ReplyDeletemessymimi; I suspect they've just copied the contact list and now these emails are computer generated. I went through the list yesterday and deleted 95% of contacts so we'll find out soon if they keep using the old list or somehow get the new one.
DeleteThose Mumbai escorts won't leave me alone! The spam filter used to catch anonymous commenters, but it stopped.
ReplyDeleteKathy's Klothesline; mine too. Every now and again one gets through, so you have to do the whole routine again. Go to your comments, tick the spam one, mark it as spam and then go into your spam folder and delete it. That should keep them away for a while as your filter recognises them again.
DeleteThanks for that.
ReplyDeleteMargaret-whiteangel; you're welcome.
DeleteThanks, River. I'll get "Red" onto their tail!!!
ReplyDeleteLee; That could work, "Red" is in prison, but that doesn't seem to stop him from outside contacts.
DeleteI've stopped alerting people,. At this point most people can sniff this crap out easily. Like Joanne says they will always be with us...we need to learn to ignore.
ReplyDeletejoeh; I know most people are wise to these things, but I have a few readers new to me, so I put up a warning just in case.
DeleteIt is hard work, but maybe you should change your email address. And if you change to gmail from yahoo, I will a notification as soon as you comment.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; changing the address means notifying at least three dozen people that I can think of and that's just the ones who don't blog.
