In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.

Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
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.

Well Ed, looks as though you were right about them being liars but... You could have made just an inquiry about them and not make up the phony email. You would look so good right now had you NOT made the email
I agree. He might have been right on the money this time, but it does little to make up for past deeds. I can admit I was wrong in this case, but I can't apologize for something He's proved to be true more then once.

I doubt he made it up. We all spent more time trying to find anyway he could have been lying to us than on any other BOI I remember seeing. I'm not saying that I haven't had issues with some of the things I have seen from him, but his MO has always been more of not telling the whole story than straight out lying.
I, like everyone else, wanted the people we thought were doing so much good to be right.

This discussion has been going on in another thread(off topic). so lets discuss it here.
This email was sent to me via the kingsnake reply to post system, c wise asked for a donation then later denied sending the email. you can clearly see that it came from [email protected] the I.P. address originated from their computer in Michigan.
I sent the email to KelliH she looked it over and her opinion was that it was legit, some have said an I.P. address can be altered...some say they are static and are impossible to alter.
Would webslave take a look at the I.P. address and offer an opinion on if it came from their computer or not, also answer if an I.P can be altered. I have always been under the impression that they can not be changed. I ask webslave this because I believe him to have much knowledge on this subject.
Please no guessing... like I think this that or the other, lets hear from some computer wizards with facts not guesses. I will forward the email to knowledgeable people that know what they are doing with computers. I certainly don't.
Please no slamming,bickering or insults. this is an opportunity to learn something.
This is the email it came from.
I.P. addresses can be both static, or dynamic depending on the form of connection, but they can't be "altered" only masked which even at that it takes some strong software, and somebody a little more intelligent than Jeff, and Christina.
Either way an I.P. address is assigned partially by ones computer, gateway, and internet provider.
