The following was sent to me via this message board. It is, of course, a scam. Bad enough people come on the boards to spam sneakers and sex toys but I hate when they use my email address to spam me directly. I took off my email address from my profile before because I was getting spam like this and just recently put it back in my profile. Now I am getting spam again. Really pisses me off because I put the email address there for message board members to contact me.
It angers me that some schmuck used Tim's name to try to take advantage of people.
Who else got this? Just wondering. No biggie really, just annoys me. |

My question is, why are they still on the site? I thought we had a new system or program to get them off. Is that down?
I actually have received no spam e-mails from this site and I use hotmail, which I think is kind of odd, lol. |

Haha this reminds me of my good friend, "Boner".
He got a check in the mail for like $12,785.56. He told EVERYONE he won the lottery or something, and I do mean everyone. It was so funny. He seriously thought he had won.
Scams and flams.....anyone remember that skit from Mr. Show? One of my favorites. |
