My computer e mail list

[Doug Lavoie]

To the folks on this site that I have had personal e mails sent and received. Early this morning I started getting calls about me being in Spain and needing money. That is not true. My e mail list has been hijacked. I have been working with the RCMP fraud on this. I will let everyone know on a safe e-mail. I cannot access my account right now so am trying my best to get the word out you you.

I am truly sorry for any inconvenience this has and may cause you folks. I have tried to keep my system clean of any virus my best etc., but some where it did not work. What a hell of a world! I truly am sorry.

Thanks,
Doug

Does this mean that you are NOT going to repay me the money I wired? All kidding aside, there should be a special place in Hell for these assh*les.

Sorry Doug, I have to admit I hadn't yet read your mail before I saw the retraction, so it was deleted before reading.
More seriously, without knowing much about it I wonder if those who opened the fraud mail should be watching in case their address books have been scooped as well. I don't know if this is a reasonable concern or if I'm falling victim to the paranoia that floats in my work department some days.

My first thought was, Doug has found a nice CMP truck or a Carrier
and need help on a hunting trip in Europa. After reading the e-mail
again, I deleted right away.

After having received your email with the request for me to wire money to Madrid, and now your rebuttal that you will not be in Spain, I must ask what you have against that country? Or your statement that you do not not need money. Heck we all need money; we have this obsession with 1:1 scale models of military vehicles.

How do we know that this is really you now?

[Doug Lavoie]

Rob,
I had enough money to make a barrel nut for my smoke discharger. It cost almost as muvh as the carrier when I bought it. I was trying to qualify as a hoarder but... did not have enough stuff to make it. Take care over there.

I was in the bush. My darling responded to your email. Of course the money tree is dying or dead, so you didnt get the money. Now I am worried because "they" have my email. We will be watching now for any signs of bad karma. Thanks for filling us in. Sorry you didnt get to Spain.

I was on the bus looking at my messages on my mobile and got a polite letter saying I had won a couple million Euros in a lottery. It made my morning commute happier for a fraction of an instant. The truth was the return email URL wasn't in Wales or France or Netherlands, but in Hong Kong. So, besides having a big sigh and a return to reality, double checking the address was just another reminder of how foolish some people must be.

So, can I have my $50 back. I did want to help out a fellow rusty old trucker.
