In the Middle of Nowhere?!

I don't know why it's taken me that long to write this up but I knew the moment it satrted happening that I should :D And like one of my friends said when I showed the messages to her: "It's been going on for half a year? really?". The time just flew by and even I was shocked wow yeah, it has indeed been that long... :D someone was seriously obsessed.

So one day I got a message from a totally random guy and since I am how I am and don't really care for talking to strangers :D I answered very tentatively and in the end just blatantly ignored everything. That didn't stop him though and soon his "friend" started messaging me and then when I ignored him as well another guy tried his luck... I've never in my life had anything like this before and haven't had randomers messaging me since... And when I say totally random guy I mean not even one mutual friend although they claim to be in Aber etc. When I looked at their profiles they all seemed to be done recently and just had shirtless photos of them added recently and some statuses :D no new ones though and no other activity, so I thought they were fake profiles tbh :D but who/why would suddenly be so obsessed to start talking to me under fake profiles? :D

I'm laughing when reading those back so I'lll copy them here :) My text is in italic and yes they are mainly monologues :D

Hi, not sure if you remember me but I wanted to talk to you about what's been going down with my mate Dan (2nd guy). He showed me his messages before, and I thought I'd tell you, he got autism and doesn't mean any harm, but I've told him to block you and to leave alone.
Hi, I'm pretty sure I don't know either of you, but no worries
thanks, maybe not, I'm 3rd year now but I was in Germany for a year before that.
oh also please let me know if it happens again? émoticône smile

Fair enough, but I shouldn't have told you, it wasn't my place to, besides the comments were made a couple of months ago now on a night out, not to me though, you know what girls are like when they are bitching about people. no offense meant on my part. bye

ok
you would prob find it a bit weird if I did
but up to you émoticône smile
no thanks

yes
ok
msg me if you change your mind, got a bet on seeing how many girls actually accept!
honestly its only a laugh, i send, you rate it andd then forgotten about
How long is this bet going on for?
i dont know.. few days probs why??
You've been messaging me for a month now
ah ok that wasnt the bet then though, but as you were in my inbox
So do you message all your 1000 friends like this?
no just started a silly bet
On the 17th April?
maybe
Maybe...
maybe you want me to send a pic??
No
damn
sorry if you took any offence émoticône smile, but really all you had to do was delete the message if you are that hung up over it.its only meant as a bit of a laugh. émoticône smile
and no i just thought at first id say hi to you
sorry ok, it was honestly a laugh, was it really a big deal for you
what did you think i was going to send?? just curious, im losing anyway

And then the best thing happened: apparently the girlfriend of guy number 2 messaged me :)

has something ever happened between you and the guy im seeing?
?
can you talk to me please
?
guilty then
??????????
ROB
stay away from other peoples men in future,
you have not even read my message yet?

And then as suddenly as it started it ended a whole 7 months later :D

Fun times :)

The question remains though... is it 4 different people who all at the same time when messaging me happened to create a new profile they later never updated or is one person behind all of these? :D quite sad if the latter proves to be the right answer :D

Ttyl ;)
Jazzz...

We all know the old long lost African relative, who've unfortunately recently died and left you thousanda/millions of pounds, scam. A grammatically faulty e-mail will notify you that all you need to do is send them a little money (5 000?) to get the inheritance out of bonds etc. easy-peasy :)

And banks have warned us on multiple occasions that a genuine bank call will not need you to reveal either your PIN code or secret password... And still those phone calls are quite common and people fall for them :( Natwest is not helping the situation by actually asking your 1st, 5th and 6th letter of the password by phone when they call you for something... :S umm.. didn't you just say that you don't ask for passwords over the phone??!!! Do I have to tell you part of my password over the phone or not???!!!

Anyway a couple of months ago one of our neighbours came down to apologize for the wifi being slow... Our wifi had indeed been slow that day so Mr. Special said no worries mate, but try not to do it again :D later when we talked about it, I couldn't understand how he can affect our wifi :S We even had different providers... A little investigating and turns out he had received a phone call from Microsoft... okay... They said that he had accidentally downloaded some virus that now is affecting the whole neighbourhood's wifi and they need access to his computer to download some other files to counteract that virus... :O :O :O okay... in order to do that they obviously need to access the computer from afar etc. (all the computer info and passwords) AND just to be safe they need internet banking passwords and card numbers... to check that they're safe...

yeap... he actually gave them all his passwords and god knows what else :( (sidenote: he is as you call a vulnerable person). Needless to say his bank account was emptied within minutes and on top of all he got a HUGE phone bill as they were on the phone for quite a long time...

Another phone related scam is to do with Ukash electronic money vouchers (don't ask me what they are or how you can use them...) and shops who can give out those vouchers are targeted. A friend told me a story where this phone call was successful and it's grim man... The reason is that apparently they didn't just get away with only one voucher for about 20-50 pounds but somehow the cashier managed to put through (and give them) a couple THOUSAND pounds. I do wonder what did the people on the phone say to make the cashier do it so many times??? Especially as some tills first ask you is it a genuine customer or a phone call... and if you press the phone call button it automatically cancels the transaction... Can you imagine though when the person realised what he/she had done?
