I opened my email account to a big surprise ~ looks like someone has signed me up at Match.com. At first I thought it was Walker. I used to tease him that we should both register with an online dating site and see if they put us together. I wouldn't actually do that. It isn't fair to the folks who are seriously looking for some companionship to register for kicks. But I thought it was an interesting idea, to see if some criteria set up by who knows who would decide that we are right for each other. Or not. Ahem. Anyway, I realized it wasn't Walker because we were together all day, and because Walker doesn't do more than check his email and pay a couple bills online without help.
I have no idea what my profile looks like but I have a lot of matches. I would imagine that's a good thing. I don't know how to get rid of my profile, since I do not have a password. I could probably contact the webmaster at the site. Hopefully there is nothing on there that would make me look bad, in case I start job hunting or something. If I run for president someday this will probably come back to haunt me. I'm sure I'll make myself nuts trying to figure out who the prankster is. What I know for sure? Somebody needs a hobby ~
Ohhhhh, I would have that taken down, pronto!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, that is interesting that it got set up without your knowledge or permission. Someone definitely hacked into your computer I'm thinking. I think I'd do my best to get it removed and then I think I'd change my password!

I think I would not take this as well as you're taking it! But my husband and I have talked about how fun it would be to see if we were matched up. But after almost 39 years, I guess we'll figure we're a good match!
ReplyDeleteWOW what a surprise? Part of me would have been flattered. But then I'd get mad, that someone pulled a fast one on me. Hope you get it resolved. Everything online has a way of coming back to haunt you.
ReplyDeleteMy name doesn't appear in any of the emails, so I'm not too worried about it. I kind of think someone did this as a prank on someone else. The email address used is one I have never given out. I just use it for when you need an email for an online promotion. So I'm thinking, maybe someone with a similar email address was the intended target......unless someone fesses up, I will probably never know.
ReplyDeleteMakes me wonder what someone might be doing on the internet in our name that we don't even know!
ReplyDeleteI get those quite often. Here I am nearly 82 and they want to match me with some one. I think they are harmless as far as harming any serious aspect of your life. Mine goes to all my e-mails and I have 3. They must just send them out to most anyone. They area nuisance though.
