I've done something silly...

OK Emptynester Cliffhangers not allowed.. so who sent him the card????

In the early days of email at work a colleague thought she was forwarding an email photo of 'naughty' gnomes to the 4 people in the office she worked in. Unfortunately she managed to send it to the whole company including the Managing Director. He made sure she had lessons on how not to do it again.

womble54 my mind boggles!

About 10 years ago I sent a sexy email to a guy and it went to my sister as well as him, and also to another guy! I must add I wasn't seeing more than one man at a time! I was mortified when my sister replied telling me she was shocked! I had replied to his email, so why it went to two other people I have no idea. It was so embarrassing and annoying considering I only replied to someone's email. I was dreading seeing my sister again after that. It still gives me palpitations thinking about it.

Oh yes indeed a couple of times, once to my son which was a message meant for my partner after a wonderful Christmas (too much information LOL) and also to the lovely young teenager we look after on a Saturday evening. I am so careful but obviously not careful enough. I usually only use messages for my partner, but occasionally someone will message me and that is when I make the error. Note to oneself. Double check who you are messaging before sending. :-(

LEWLEW He told me at a later time - somebody who shared my first name, but he was never sure who? I never did ask why I had seemed the most likely candidate.

My DH's colleague received an email from a client, dated 25 Dec. Said colleague then forwarded email to DH, adding 'How much of a Billy No Mates do you have to be to send that email on Christmas Day???'. You've guessed it, client was copied in ?

Cybergrime - that HAS to be the new word of the year. hahaha!!

My son sent me a text once meant for his wife along the lines of "get your kit off I'm on my way home". Boy was he embarrassed when he realised! ?

Icyalittle, when I said it was too large I meant the picture of course! As for anything else, I couldn't possibly comment!

Lots of lols! I can't really compete - worst I've done was one critical of a family member,intended only for my daughter, went to the subject. I also mystified an acquaintance with one moaning about them not having put the bins put which was meant for DS.
TIP: put the address in last!

Last year I got a text from a woman which was clearly meant for her boyfriend, saying if he meant anything of what he'd said she was waiting for an apology or she was finished with him this time. He had broken her heart for the last time.

I decided to let her know that he wasn't going to be able to reply, as it had come to an old granny! She apologised and said he had been treating her really badly, so I replied and said listen, you deserve better than a liar and a cheat. She said, I know I am but I love him. So I said, but you have to love yourself more. Turn the love you have for him back to yourself. She said she'd try.

No idea who she was, but she sounded lovely and I hope she took my advice!

I have a friend (in her twenties) who received a text from her dad, meant for his girlfriend.
It was extremely graphic, and referred to what a 'big lad' he is.
She was horrified!

My daughter sent a message to her husband when he was using his computer to give a presentation to 100+ colleagues and prospective clients. And yes it popped up on the large screen. Luckily it wasn't too embarrassing although his boss did ask him if he wanted to clear the room before answering!

On one occasion I was asked to fax 3 sheets of paper to one person, but only send two of them to another person. Of course I sent the wrong one. I realised what I done, and was really worried. I had an appointment with my GP after work and told her. She said "Oh,don't worry about, just lie!" There was never any comeback though.

Juney64 cybergrime = an electronic version of a dirty postcard?

I once accidentally sent a picture of a man I liked to my entire mailing list. Oooops! Fortunately, he wasn't identifiable, and many of them couldn't open it because it was too large.

Oooo Womble I'm sniggering like a school girl here over your post ... "it was too large"

Lovely story Ginny.

And cybergrime is now in my vocabulary. I shall cherish and use it at every opportunity.

In a facebook messenger group we had been discussing a forthcoming big surprise we were planning for a our friend. Along with the plans we also had a side chat pulling her husbands character apart in a joking but still a bit cutting way. For no apparent reason one of the group suddenly decided to invite the friend to the chat! Shock horror .
Luckily it was noticed a few minutes later and it was rectified in a panic by deleting the whole conversation. Never mind about the spoiled surprise ,the thought of the friend reading our comments about her beloved makes our blood run cold every time we think about it.

Ooooopsss......Why does one send texts to a window cleager ? My hubby would be most concerned
