Apparently he’s stuck in London after a quick visit, had his wallet stolen and needs to catch the next flight out – presumably to go fight bad guys? He’s asking if I can wire him some money. Weirdest fucking spam email EVAR. June 3, 2010 at 6:05 pm #109904 DaveParticipant That must be the new viral marketing technique for the next series. Might pay for the budget too. June 3, 2010 at 6:36 pm #109905 hummingbirdParticipant There’s a budget? June 3, 2010 at 7:36 pm #109906 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Weird. Ian and I got the exact same email… June 3, 2010 at 8:25 pm #109907 Squeaky GibsonParticipant That’s very interesting. would be a unique form of Viral marketing June 3, 2010 at 10:03 pm #109908 CarlitoParticipant I got it too. Probably somebody got our details from this site somehow. June 3, 2010 at 11:09 pm #109909 Kris CarterParticipant You mean I just got scammed out of 2 grand? Dammit. June 4, 2010 at 8:18 am #109910 Seb PatrickKeymaster If anyone who didn’t get it wants to see the message: Hi, sorry to bother you at this time but I and Lauretha made a quick trip this past weekend to London,UK and had our bag stolen from us with my passport and credit cards in it. The embassy is willing to help by letting me fly without my passport, I just have to pay for a ticket and settle hotel bills. Unfortunately for me, I can’t have access to funds without my credit card, I’ve made contact with my bank but they need more time to come up with a new one. I was thinking of asking you to lend me some quick funds that I can give back as soon as I get in. I really need to be on the next available flight. I can forward you details on how you can get the funds to me. You can reach me via email or May field hotel’s desk phone, the numbers are, 011447024065511 or 011447024064567 or on my blackberry at a.ceready@ymail.com. I await your response… ace rimmer June 4, 2010 at 8:46 am #109911 Jonathan CappsKeymaster > I got it too. Probably somebody got our details from this site somehow. More likely people who’ve openly posted their email address somewhere on this site or another Dwarf forum. The email addresses tied to your accounts are not public and available only to the site. June 4, 2010 at 9:55 am #109912 Danny StephensonKeymaster Now that Seb has posted the e-mail address on a forum, they’ll probably get spammed in a similar manner. Irony!! June 4, 2010 at 11:22 am #109913 David MParticipant I love the fact Ace Rimmer has a Blackberry! June 4, 2010 at 3:01 pm #109916 ori-STUDFARMParticipant Isn’t 0114 a Leeds prefix too…….thought he was in London!! BTW I have not received the email and feel quite left out!! June 4, 2010 at 4:19 pm #109918 redhead85Participant Who do you think Lauretha is? The sister of Princess Bonjella? June 4, 2010 at 4:41 pm #109919 CarlitoParticipant > I got it too.

The email addresses tied to your accounts are not public and available only to the site. Yeah, I wasn’t implying it was the site’s fault. That’s the interwebz for ya. Getting spammed is a part of the deal… June 5, 2010 at 1:12 pm #109931 Danny StephensonKeymaster Isn’t 0114 a Leeds prefix too…….thought he was in London!! Sheffield, actually but that’s not how that massive number works 011 44 gets you to the UK, then it’s followed by the number in the UK, the 44 is replaced by a 0 if you’re already in the country so your man’s mobile number is 07024065511 or 07024064567 June 5, 2010 at 2:25 pm #109932 ori-STUDFARMParticipant Wow, we’ve got both of Ace’s mobile numbers!! :) June 5, 2010 at 3:11 pm #109934 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Let’s ring him up. We might get a new site visitor out of it. June 5, 2010 at 3:36 pm #109935 ori-STUDFARMParticipant tbh, you might be getting a few extra visitors because of the “Something is happening” thread. I got over excited last night and posted links to it….pretty much everywhere! June 5, 2010 at 3:39 pm #109936 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Good man!
