Here's the good news and the bad news.
Good news: this targeted every message board on network54.com, not just ours. They weren't targeting "card guys". Bad news: You are all likely now on a major spam list. Here's how the little scam works, they write a computer program to go through the millions of posts to extract any email addresses they find. Then they send an email to all of the addresses. If it doesn't "bounce" then they know they have a legit active email address that they can sell to other spammers. All you can do about it is NOT post your email address to any forums (network54, the old site had some serious privacy issues) and get some good anti-spam software. |

I'm surprised a few board members haven't come on to defend the person who sent the email. After all, she's a great guy with a great reputation and would never send an inappropriate email even though "she" just sold your email address to a spam company for 1/10 of one cent.

So does this mean that we can now add a personal's section in the B/S/T forum?
I already have my ad done if Leon approves.... ![]() I'm single, athletic male with no social life except for visiting baseball card forums. I love midnight walks around empty ball parks, spending evenings inf front of a PC surfing the internet while having cheetos with bottles of diet coke. I'm looking for a single female, preferably in near mint condition with no qualifiers (some creasing on the skin is okay), prefereably post war (definitely not 19th century). So is Tbob getting married to this woman? Are they registered for gifts on this forum? Maybe we pitch in on a gift for the couple! |

She's actually a very nice lady, we'll be going out again. I...I think I love her.

My wife is extremely literate, a 57 year old former French and English teacher with impeccable grammar. If I ever had an illicit romance with a card loving gal, she would at least be able to avoid speaking broken English and be able to communicate!

My best guess is that the "she" who sent this email is a "he" who lives in his parents basement in Ukraine.

I want to attend Ricky's wedding and it should be soon after the women read his net54 personal ad!
We need to make a calendar of "the Women of Vintage Cards" and have Leon sponsor it! It's probably the only subject not covered by a calendar! I have an ex that was in the adult fim industry and we can use her as Ms. January! Back in the late 70's my hero at shows was Don Lepore of NY. He is a few years older than I am and he ALWAYS brought a fine foxy young ladie or two with him to shows. I loved the Willow Grove shows as he was near our spot. At the CPU Marc Lewis "Willie, Mickey, and the Duke Show" in Manhattan, he had different women each day! I spent lots of money and gladly paid whatever they said the price was for cards I did not need! Start a new thread: What show has the best strip joints near it? My vote is the old Willow Grove shows! Have a great weekend everyone! |
