Thanks for the info, Graphite. It's a shame we don't have foresight as a standard feature of our brains, or we could suss these things out without needing to talk about it publicly to inform one another!

I haven’t seen that anyone here has been indiscreet or given those pm-ers any facts about themselves at all.
So he/ she/ it has been sussed out.
We’re just having a laugh about it.

Reading all these comments, I wondered whether I had got a pm from craig too. I just checked and yes, I have! It's talking about my comment on the camping stove thread - polite but it doesn't say anything useful or interesting. I'm pretty certain it's AI-driven (unless some poor lonely soul is sitting up all night commenting on everything he/she/it reads!). I'll be blocking.

Scam scum don’t introduce themselves as someone who wants to empty your bank account.
One member here has stated that she did reply.
These people could take weeks to reel you in little by little and you won’t know it’s happening until they go in for the clincher.
By this time you’re so invested in this relationship you’re hooked.
I’m pleased that my lovely late mother in law is no longer here.
I’m certain tat she would have been reeled in.

I came to the realisation a few months ago, that all sorts happens by PM. One way or another.

Can't wait to join something or other on line and be Chestersmiles. Lovely. Reminds me of the Cheshire cat. Or Chesterdrawers. Chester Conklin? Chesterfield. Feel da chest. Stop there.
