Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Hi Janet: I received something too that was a list of items and books for sale. I did not respond to the person, but it happened soon after I first posted here. So, I suspect the person is getting our email addresses when posts come via email. Just FYI and thanks for keeping us safe from predators, Star Dance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I'm sorry if it sounded like I was complaining. I really am happy to be here and think you all are doing a great job. I just wanted to let you know that I was another recipient. The only thing I was thinking was Yahoo would take it more seriously if you had all our experiences. Thank you! Star Dance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Dear Vicki If you received the same message that I did advertising for a cure, then I think we haee a " list miner " in our midst, since Janet said we didn't have such an address subscribed. The e-mail originagted from ffiance@.... YAHOO has a very strict policy regarding spam mail, so I sent the entire message, complete with full headers, to abuse@... for them to handle and close the YAHOO mail box. A list miner is someone who joins the list under one address and gets the addresses of anyone who posts and solicits them with spam from another e-mail addresss. The use of two e-mail addresses makes it virtually impossible to detect a list miner's true identity (I am the listowner on two Christian cancer lists, so I speak from first hand experience with these vermin). As we all know, there is NO CURE for fibromyalgia. The first person to find one will be a millionaire many times over! The rule of thumb regarding products alleging to help or cure a disease is that if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is. hugs and prayers, Sharon - Memphis, TN Faith...with it, miracles *CAN* and *DO* happen!
