WARNING: May contain opinions
Someone's trying to scam this site for email addresses.
I got an email today from the occupii site relating to someone called Miss Anne (anne.desmond24@yahoo.co.uk).
The email said she'd left a comment on my page.The comment text was listed in the email and basically said she liked my page and would I respond telling her more about me then she'd send a photo.
On checking my page I found the comment wasn't here on the site at all and the user Miss anne does not exist! I googled her email address and found hundreds of instances of the same email text from various different sites.
This is obviously a ploy to try and get people to respond via email, thus giving him/her their email address and any other info the victim chooses to divulge so:
if you get this message please delete it and don't respond!

Comment by DJ Messy on August 9, 2012 at 21:32 thanks UKAnon, I'm a computer engineer / tech nerd type, tried to put the post in laymans terms so people understood what was going on without me getting too tech-talky (which I have a bad habit of doing sometimes!)

Comment by UKAnon on August 8, 2012 at 0:57 Hi DJ Messy, yes, we do get phishers and spammers signing up daily unfortunately, and I, among other admins try to keep on top of them as and when we're alerted - hence why their accounts has now "disappeared". ;)
Thanks for bringing this up. This particular phisher (of emails) created no less than four identical user acounts (using variations of the yahoo email account) earlier today. I deleted them all when I was made aware.
Stay vigilant people - occupy is a huge draw for email harvesters, please be wary of ANY site or person asking for your email account or other details.
Best wishes,
UKAnon

Where to begin…first - I apologize for this being so LONG everyone knows I hate wordy drawn out blogs so ... karma? Who knows.
There’s a small retaining pond behind the college apartments. I go back there several times a day; it’s a good area that forces me to have a bit of a walk. …

I was just endiing a campaign in Michigan against our Governor, and wondered what more was out there, what more can I do to help make my country the place I used to love, when I stumbled across a thing called Livestream, where people with the same purpose (supposedly) or like mindness could come together, chat, discuss, plan, and act and I was to say the least, excited. I started chatting and made so many friends and it was then I realized, that I had been wrapped up in my own small…
