More strange emails

Yesterday the Irish got to vote on the Lisbon Treaty this was a nice 400 page document outlining new rules about the structure and voting rules in the EU. The Treaty was rejected by 53.4% to 46.6%. And some guy who said he was from France sent me an email complaining about the Irish people. I love getting email, it’s almost as good as getting actual post. But I do get some strange emails via the contact for my irish jobs website. So here’s the email

1% of the european population put the mess for non realistic resasons !!! You did received 30 milliards of euros from us the lats 10 years …Bluoody Irish..F…. YOU

Thanks Jacques !

Interesting Emails

- paul 1 Comment

From time to time I get some interesting, random emails through the contact forms on my sites. The contact forms are a great way to avoid putting a public email address on a website, this will save you the hassle of getting SPAM by these email harvesters in the long run. Generally I aim to have one of these on all the websites, and just get it sent to my gmail address.

So yesterday I got a rather interesting one, asking about Premium Phone operators. The email came via my Black Dog site, which is the location I point people to when asking about web design.

Hi,

Someone told me to contact you in relation to employment as a adult phone
operator..

The email seemed serious enough, and she even included her phone number. I replied saying that I don’t do anything in that industry, and I asked who forwarded my details to her.
