Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Patty I got a weird one the other day - no attachment but it came directly to my box -not through the group. the person didn't give a name but asked if I could help her - wanted to know my doctors name. I thought it was weird - I didn't give much of a response in case it was a hoax. I said that I had multiple doctors and left it at that. yep - i think it is weird yet satisfying that we are ruffling some feathers - the world is starting to realize that maybe we aren't all psycho - there has been a lot of negative media coverage lately.... shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 By the way, everyone should have an Anti-virus program that is updated regularly, and a firewall. Furthermore, it is a good idea to check the size of an email when you get your letters in your inbox. Usually the viruses are 15-30 KB in size (or larger), while all the other messages are much smaller, usually 1-5 KB. AGAIN, NEVER OPEN AN ATTACHMENT FROM A TOTAL STRANGER. I even had them forging email addresses from my friends, including one of the missionaries I've corresponded with in the Dominican Republic, to tempt me to open infected emails...(but I'm not that dumb). I hope it doesn't happen to any of you, but obviously, our chatter is ruffling a few feathers. Hmmmm, wonder what they are so afraid of???? After all, implants are safe, right? And aren't we supposedly just a bunch of psycho women, and all this stuff is in our heads? By toying with us, they speak volumes. Just be watchful, and pay attention to strange letters.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Patty this is why I don't get the emails anymore and just use a address on here that I hardly even check. I don't use my home address and yet lately I have also been getting viruses there, I agree there are people who don't want us to be able to tell the truth about these defective devices, and as our group grows I expect this will continue to get worse.
