I must be a *creepy man" magnet LOL! Appreciate the compliments, but no thanks.

[hobo73]

A message I just found in my facebook "other" message folder. I blanked out his name lol.

 

Hey,

I was just browsing through my page when i found your photo on Facebook a few days ago and must say it really made me feel like I have won a jackpot just to see a pretty woman like you on my page, I gotta say that I was amazed... I don't know what this is but you've got something that attracts me. I did not notice how this letter almost got finished))

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to tell you that, my name is XXXXXX)

Let me tell you a little bit about myself.. I travel a lot and I love it so much. I always want to go somewhere and I think I will go on until I found someone whom I'd like. I like to meet new interesting people from all over the world, are you still single? If yes how long have you been single?...

So, could u tell me more about yourself? What kind of woman are u? What do you like? Why'd you like to write me maybe tomorrow???)))

Can't wait for your answer... Please write me back when you got some time...

 

 

 

......so.......uh.....yeah hahaha. Okay then!

"Well, I love Star Trek and wrestling, I regularly blast heavy metal day and night, and OOH! I have a husband and daughter."

 

Think he'd bite? LOL

I'm flattered, but still slightly creeped out hahaha.

[Babycat]

That would weird me out. Totally.

[JohnnyBlaze]

Having a husband & daughter won't likely stop him. He'll probably give some stock reply like, "Oh, your husband is a lucky man. How old is your daughter?"

 

This would be the best answer:

"I'm a hermaphrodite. My hobbies are worshipping the devil and collecting toe nail clippings and used toilet paper."

If that doesn't stop his messages nothing will.

[Amy Farrah Fowler]

Is he a Nigerian Prince? If so...go for it. ;)

 

Many creeps out there...'tis why I won't let my kids have FB or Instagram accounts (or even uncontrolled email, for that matter) yet.

[Maverick]

That was you I sent that PM too?

 

:outtahere:

[treeduck]

That would weird me out. Totally.

[umoveme]

Umm, how public is your page? Yikes!

[hobo73]

LMAO!!! you all have me dying over here ahahahaha >.<

 

My page is super private, only my profile pic shows up in searches. Guess I need to figure out how to hide THAT, too =/

 

I had to make my FB insanely private after issues with family lol guess not good enough!!!

Not to mention he lives in Kentucky. Quite the jaunt for him to make hahaha.

 

And AGREED- my daughter will NOT be allowed to have a social media page at a young age. If she proves she is responsible, it will still be run by me and her father. we will know all passwords.

You're not a creep magnet as a person. The fact that you have a public facebook profile makes you a creep magnet. You say your profile is super private but it's obviously not if anyone can look you up. My SO used to have it public and would get these messages very often from people ranging 12 to 50 (yep, old enough to be her father). Some lived in the same city and some lived across the globe. They would send her messages asking for everything ranging from casual sex, to a date, to casual conversation and nude photos. I told her to set her profile page to private and they would stop (her friends are the type that add everyone even if they don't know them so friends of friends wouldn't necessarily stop the messages).

 

The same happened to a few other girls I know, same solution.

 

Welcome to the internet! Keep your arms and legs inside the car at all times (seriously, there are some desperate/crazy people) and don't post anything you wouldn't mind the whole world know. We hope you enjoy your stay.

Good advice, USB. Anything you post, even here on TRF, is indelible. Be very careful with privacy settings and what you allow the world to see. The internets (sic) are just like the real world except with a global voice. Lots of interesting topics and things to look at, but there is a very dark underside and one must take extra care to protect oneself.

 

Which remind me, I recently got caught in a financial bind. You see, I'm a Nigerian princess and I have to have left my country because it is instable. I have millions of dollars in the bank that I can't move due to the governement. If you could send me a small donation, I will repay you 1000x (and include a free order of viagra and a pizza), I just need your name, address, date of birth, social security number, bank routing and account number and I can be helped! Please pray for me, I worry each day about my safety. And i am So thankful for the generosity and kindness of people like you. ;)

 

And, if anyone actually supplies any true information to the above request, I *will* send the Cylons after you ... :tsk:

 

BTW, what's a facebook and why do I need one?

lol yeah, tell me about it! :P

 

I signed in on my old FB account and searched for my page. Absolutely nothing shows up except my picture, no info, my entire page is private.

Ive been looking all over my settings and cant seem to find anything to make my actual profile pic private =/

I have it so that nobody can find me unless I add them. Click on the gear on the top right corner. account settings. on the left, click privacy. You'll see "who can look me up". Set the first one to friends, 2nd one to friends, third one to off. Also, in "who can see my stuff" make sure that's set to friends for future posts and on the third one make sure you limit future posts.

Mine keeps asking me that too. I just ignore it. Facebook wants that information to sell.

I PM'ed you my bank account number. Unfortunately the funds are located in Cygnus X-1 and you'll need to collect in person. ;)

CygnusX-1? I know it well. Can I just use the key you've left under the mat?

You could. The cash is located right near the event horizon. Just try not to get caught in it. Things tend to get a little slow in there.

When I first saw this thread I thought the title was gonna be:

 

I must be a creepy man, help me someone and make me into a normal man!

 

I was wondering who it was who was confessing to being a creepy man. I was thinking rushgoober...

[hobo73]

d'awww rushgoober ain't so bad ;)

[Boots]

I never read any messages I get from people I don't know on Facebook. Creepy.

[Spindrift82]

There are so many weirdos on the internet. I'd just ignore it.

 

But you really need to make your profile private. I got lots of strange messages before I changed my privacy settings.
