I am wondering if any of you have received any strange PM notices form this site. Or I should say that it looks like it came from this site. I clicked on one that said I had a private message and it had a blue screen. I went out and came to this site and there wasn't a PM. This morning I had one in my junk folder titled "Nobody" and it said it was from this site. I did not open it. I came to the site again and no PM. I am just wondering if any of you have had this happen? Paula

    I changed my password and
    I changed my password and hope I won't get anymore. BTW John is still not doing any treatment. He feels good but tired. We will see his Onc this month and see how his blood work is. I wish he would try something again but I guess it is selfish of me. i just love and care about him so much. If any of you get this PM stuff let me no. Paula

    No haven't got that one. I did get one a few weeks ago by someone wanting to send me religious stuff at no cost to me. I just deleted it.

    Take care - Tina

    Hi Paula
    It's tough to tell who is sending what these days. I got one the other week that appeared to be from PayPal but when I saw the web address, it wasn't really PayPal. All they wanted me to do was to go to the link and log in because there was a "problem" with my account. I contacted PayPal and forwarded the email to them, it was someone "phishing" as they call it. Sites can look legit but the URL (web address) is often a dead give-away. If it's supposed to be www.csn.cancer.org and it isn't, then don't trust it. Also, just like we've all told our kids "Don't talk to strangers" and don't give out your SS# or any account numbers.
    Also, look both ways before you cross the street and always wear clean underwear. I remember some joke about the clean underwear, the punchline was something like "if I ever WAS in an accident, I'd probably crap my pants anyway so what's the difference?"

    I'm glad John is feeling well Paula. I know this is rough on you and on him. Hopefully he will continue to feel well.

    Well Phil you made me laugh
    Well Phil you made me laugh again. My mom always told me to wear clean undrwear because of that reason. Never heard the crap my pants part but it is most likely is a given.

    I am still getting the PM in my junk folder and just deleting it.

    Glad that noboby else got one. thanks Paula

    Yes I also received the PM from Susan Smiles about praying for me and wanting to send me a book. Didn't realize that this was being sent to anyone else. Just wrote her back and said thanks but no thanks. Glad that John is feeling good.
