I wish I'd kept all the other usernames & addresses now ...

Originally, the sites from which these messages have been collected were meant as a way to make some friends and increase my social horizon. It was never intended to draw the attention of anybody for romantic reasons. Because of the cluelessness of about 97% of my writers, I was getting annoyed that nobody seemed to care that my profile clearly states I'm only there for friends. I felt it was a waste of time.

However, in light of this rather astounding barrage of totally *wacky* correspondence, I've decided to maintain my memberships on the sites. This is getting funnier with every new email I get! Not only that, now I have a 'net' that can expose these creeps for the scammers they are. That's why I chose to show their names and addresses after all. I was initially thinking it's better to guard their privacy ... but NOT when they're trying to deceive the innocently helpful.
Try emailing one of them! See what happens. Bait them right back. Make up a phony account and play along. See how far they try to lead you down the garden path.

.... twits.
