A mystery I just received an email from michael Automorrow is a blog host that is currently on hiatus The email refers to a message from Oprah linking to an ad for 1000 Caralluma a weight loss diatary supplement that is endorsed by Oprah and Dr. Oz This email is similar to a hundred other pieces of crap that are sent to me weekly, except for the 24 emails that are listed in the broadcast. They are: contest@pornusers.com newsletter@pornusers.com anybody@arizonabev.com I sent them one email 5 years ago Four of my exgirlfriends spanning 40+ years, Two of which preceded the existence of email The sister of an old girlfriend who has lived in Germany for 20 years The sister of yet another girlfriend from 40 years ago with whom I am in contact from time to time An old client that I’ve not contacted in 12 years An eighty year old aunt in Florida that I speak to periodically but who does have email The billing department of Aetna Insurance who were my hospitalization providers until 2013 Jeff with a company I dealt with briefly 5 years ago Felix with a company I dealt with briefly 3 years ago Neither of which involved email An electronics store that went out of business 5 years ago Two FaceBook addresses of people I do not know autorenew@webroot.com I subscribed 12 years ago and seven others I do not know I have no clue what this is about or how that string of emails applies. Several of them are not in my email list. The only reason I’m posting this are the first two listings. I don’t buy most of the conspiracy theories out there and have been amazed over the years at the level and provenance of the information that is mined. Any ideas? unless life also gives you water and sugar, your lemonade is gonna suck. | |

I would delete this crap, and not over think it. When spam gets too personal, it's time for a new email address. Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. | |

Sign up for an email account like Yahoo where you can use disposable names. Emails can be directed to your real account then the disposable name deleted when you're done with the subscription. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

Spam takes many forms these days - I received a spam voice-mail yesterday from "The Legal Dept" talking about how I had to call them back - or have my attorney call them back - to prevent "a big mess". Sounded like something George Costanza would make up. | |

For the record, PornUsers never sells, rents, or otherwise shares your email address with anyone. Just an observation but if the list of email used are all ones you've used or that are in your address book, it could be a virus or malware that's tapped into them.
