More Phishing Emails....



Recommended Posts

This just came this morning. Has anyone else received one? I can't believe this crap comes through this site. Is there NO place we're safe from this sh-it?!

I am Mr. Alain Champeaux a Texas, San Antonio, American Citizen but presently in Ghana, working with TOTAL OIL COMPANY in conjunction with Ghana National Petroleum Cooperation (GNPC) at the moment, I have a very big transaction, which I will like to discuss with you. or email me @ (a_champeaux@hotmail.com)

Thanks

Mr. Alain Champeaux

Yea, that's the same one I just received. I reported it, I don't know if that can stop it though. Such a pain.

Steph - how do you report it?

If they contacted you like me through private messaging. In the corner down where it says "like this" is a button that says report, you have to put your curser by it or you can barely see it. Otherwise you can PM Alex and give him the info you got in the message ie, email addy, name, stuff like that.

We have pretty sophisticated spam software that catches 99% of these guys before they get started. Some do fall through the crack and they're a big pain in the neck to deal with. The only way to root them out, is by having our members REPORT them. We review every single report we receive, daily. Thanks to everyone for assisting!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
