A Warning

Hello all....

Just letting you know that someone..I don't know who..possibly a "lurker" has been posting personal info on a "spouses cheater " site. My name and info has been posted on it..not sure if anyone elses is..I was able to trace the "poster" back to ivillage because apparantly thisis where a lot of ifo on cheating spouses come from.

Here is the link..you may want to see if you info and "realtionshop" has been posted.

http://www.scarleta.com

As a result I will no longer be coming back to this board. I thought it was a safe place to dicuss my issues.....

Take care and I hope none of your names have been posted and/or been emailed to spouse etc like mine has.

Please, please, please... do not promote this site... it's what they want you to do.


I warn all the time... that while you can certainly discuss issues here... do not reveil to much personal information... this is a public board and anyone has access to it... you must remain cautious at all times... hence my bumping the message for both New and Old members all the time.


if you are careful... then there should never be a problem.

I did not promote this site at all! I was sent an anonymous email yesterday and link with my info with a warning that this person has access to alot of ifno about alot of people. They new all my info from ivillage, my nick..etc....Scared the heck out of me! I went checking around this "cheating" site and one of the sourses they name for where they get their info is "ivillage".

I just wanted you and the other board memebers to know that someone is doing them a great diservice.

I do have to say that anyone using the net for anything should understand the risks they take... I myself know only too well.

It blows my mind how some nosy people get their information...that they even want to spend time getting it in the first place.

I had a freaky occurance a few months ago. My MM lived almost an hour away and had never paid a visit to me in my town. Also, we worked together out of town and we did a very good job covering it up. Anyway, I was a block from my house, walking the dog, when some guy in my neighborhood approached me and said that my MM wasn't worth the risk to hurt my H ....!!! I was so stunned....Later, I told my MM, and he decided that my old cordless was being scanned while we talked.....I still don't know the truth, but it freaks me out when I think about it.

That's what i don't know. All I can tell you is the other day i got an anonimous email from someone who said my name and info had been posted on this "cheating site". When I went to the site, my real first name, all the info I had on my ivillage post on the day I first joined. As a result I I'm not sure whether to continue posting here on ivillage. It is very disconcerting to know that someone is lurking around here collecting info. And it obviously has to be someone familiar with ivillage and the boards.

Just a few thoughts:

Delete everything in your profile on here, there are too many clues to go by and set your email in your profile so you can't recieve any, and just remember that everything on that ugly website, is hearsay, it's not proof of anything, anybody can post anything they want, that doesn't make it true. Do not respond to the email you recieved, it will just verify your email addy.
