Hi Soupers, I want to share a soup mail I got this morning and give my 2 cents on how I felt about it: Subject: hello From: Henri Claude Oyima Message: I just read some of your beauttful poems, and i think you are one of the best. I am Professor Henri C. Oyima who has just been diagnosed of Bronchial Adenoma Cancer, I have an important charitable project i will Like to discuss or talk about with you that can save lives or benefit certain individuals. Contact me directly on my e-mail address (henriclaudeoyima@groupmail.com) urgently. Remain Bless: First of all these folks like to butter you up and tell you how good you are ( by giving you some flattering comment) and then BAM. Give you a sad story to make you vulnerable and then Beg , Beg ( in a round about way) they don't come right and ask you for your bank info however that's what they're fishing for. How stupid and gullible do they think we are? Don't get me wrong If I found out about a legit charity I would help if I could. These people should stop this non sense. In the mean time I will block, block, block!

it's a joy watching the bunnies out of harm's way feeding on daily carrots of real, out of the clutches of masked wolves with their fake carats of steal

Alexis, many of us got that same soupmail and others similar in the last few months, I reported them to administration right away and also blocked the persons, I have about 3 blocked who sent such soups like this so called professor, best thing to do is block like you said, block, block, block . . . btw they have accounts with no poems, which I think should be a no, no..

These posts are appearing everywhere and are not really from Henri Oyima (who appears to be a legitimate person) but from hackers who have "assumed" that identity....do not, under any circumstances, reply to or follow any instructions or suggestions these "spam" messages contain......best of all would be NEVER to open or to read such junk mail.......
