    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

It's true - this is the email he sent me:
Good morning!

My family and I made an unannounced trip to Ukraine for a short holiday but our journey have turn sour. We were mugged in an alley by a gang of thugs on our way back from shopping. All valuable things including mobile phones were stolen off us, quite honestly it was beyond a dreadful experience for us but looking on the bright side we weren't seriously hurt or injured and we are still alive so that is what's important. I've report to the Authorities here and cancelled all our cards.

I'm really having some difficulties clearing our hotel bills and also need to pick up a voucher ticket at the counter for us to catch a flight back home as soon as possible.All we need right now is $2,950 but anything you can spare pending when we get things straightened out will be appreciated and I promise to refund you as soon as we arrive home safely. Let me know what you can do so I can tell you how to get the money to me.

All hopes on you, Tom Crutchfield www.tomcruthfielrd.com 239-625-6961

Just so wrong :(
 
I can't be the only one that got this.
(Yes, it's a scam - in case anybody was set to start sending money)
 
The thief was mugged! lol That would be some karma.
I hope people would see the website (his name) being misspelled before sending money.
:rofl:
 
Here's mine (and much more believable)

I was leaving for work this morning when a 6 foot ice cycle fell on my head. I'm ok after they sewed up my nearly decapitated head. My insurance does not cover all and make too much for Obamacare. Please help!
