In Reply to: Some warnings about dealing with people on this board..PLEASE READ!!! posted by w8lifter on February 18, 1997 at 17:23:54:
: Just wanted to make you guys aware that, when dealing with someone
: whos e-mail address is from another country, BE CAREFUL, because they MAY
: NOT be from where the address states. It is very easy to get a remailer,
: and also to do some special techniques that can make your address seem like
: it is from another country. I know of a few people on this board, (from the
: help of my hacker friends and they can located ANYONE), and there are some
: guys who for some reason are deceiving you....WHY you ask, who knows??
: But if you discuss or deal AS with theses guys, BE CAREFUL as they MAY BE
: from the US, as well they MAY BE, law enforcement related.
:
: So how does that phrase go???..........Watch your back!!!!!!!

w8lifter, I say if you see these "decieving" type people trying to solicit "business" or doing anything suspicious, you let us know who they are. Don't do it under the name w8lifter, do it under some new name so that nobody will know who you are. I don't think being a "rat" in this case is really being a rat. It's more like looking out for your buddies by being a good consumer advocate. ANARCHY!!
