I have just been informed that one of our resident trolls ( wonder if you can think who ;) ) is using a close proximity to my email address to send emails to formites.

Please note the difference in my email address and the scam address

My email address is reachbutter@aol.com
Trolls email address is Reachbuttter@aol.com
Note the upper case R and the additional "t"

This is the email received was as follows:

> From: Reachbuttter@aol.com
> Date: March 8, 2005 9:06:06 AM EST
> To:xxxxxxxxxxxx
> Subject: WBF
>
> Hey @! I told you to NOT post on my thread!!


Its not a big concern just figured you all should know not my style to send emails like that.

This now ends this public service message

True BS, so everyone knows I was the one to receive the phoney email, this is wrong.
Don't try to get me involved in your nonsense, Dutch, or whoever has a hardon for Joe.

See, this is what I mean, uncas. You put out your personal info in good faith and some @ss uses it to harass you or others.

Scot needs to do some serious spraying down here. I don't mind the rats, but the roaches give me the creeps...

George...yup...my eyes are beginning to open....
Damn it is too bad when someone has nothing better to do than try to drag others into a mud fight...
I wish there was a solution...Boy do I wish there was...
This is bordering on nuts.
Joe contacted me about these...until then, I did not know anything about them. We chatted for a few minutes...
What is the problem with some people? I'm afraid of the answer...and I got my own yesterday...not an e-mail...the system with direct communication...no trail...

Katherine...there are some very sick puppies running around...They don't know what a life is...They do know that they are miserable and only feel a part of society if they can make others as miserable as they are...
Yup...I ain't perfect...I tease a bit...I even pull a few chains but those threads/posts are short lived because life is too short.

Alteran, possibly if you hadn't been so enthusiastic in your badgering of Joe you would not be considered for inclusion in such low company. See where all that bad karma lands you? ;)

03-08-2005, 02:39 PM
Al may be enthusiastic about badgering Joe, but I don't think he did this.

Sounds more like a dutchhead deal to me.

Whomever did this is pretty low-brow. :rolleyes:

Dutch? Wouldn't surprise me.

Like Katherine said, Joe...

They hate you 'cause you have a life! :D

There was a situation here at least once before that was similar where there was a strong suspician that the aggrieved party was the same person as the perp.
Attention getting ploy, a varient of munchausens syndrome.

Joe ( Cold Spring on Hudson )
03-08-2005, 02:57 PM
Who cares who did it we can all assume just know I don't deal like that. So this thread served it's purpose. I'm not pointing fingers I just wanted people to know thats all.

Oh yea and some people do need to get a life ;)

alteran
03-08-2005, 03:28 PM
I may not have thought that Joe except for your strange last email to me where you alleged that Scot had posted here on the forum under your name and where you also told me you thought Dutch had some special relationship with Scot.

A very very strange email, it made me wonder then and this latest thing of yours seems to fit the pattern.

Joe ( Cold Spring on Hudson )
03-08-2005, 03:36 PM
Whateeeeeeeever Al :rolleyes: you want to be involved in this knock yourself out. Your a known lier and a major stalker when it comes to my posting so who cares what you think.

Next you will be telling us all about your secrete email friend that sends you $20 and tells you he knows me. Or the emails that MMike send you telling you him and Sue are in disagreement. yea you are a valid source for this :rolleyes:

Im not saying you sent the emails and I'm not saying you didn't.

Maybe Scot is posting them Joe. Like the last time he posted under your name.

Care to have me post that wacko email of yours?

Joe ( Cold Spring on Hudson )
03-08-2005, 03:44 PM
Not wacko simple fact glad you kept my email

Allow me to usurp Al smile.gif

Back during the great Dutch and Joe battle :D . scot our humble moderator changed one of my posts to say something like I wish you luck in your new love, Like I would ever say that to Dutch :D . Eventually both Dutch and myself were scoted for a brief time. During that time Al had posted some misleading information so I informed him as to the truth via a rare email that I would ever send him. Thats it big mystery over. Oooooh wow that was a weird one I'm sure everyone is on the edge of their seats.

The fact is I'm pretty up front and honest on this forum maybe TOO Honest You Al have not proven yourself trust worthy at all.

I have that email from MMike right here too and if he wants it psoted I'll do it. No BS on this end, I've saved the evidence.

Joe ( Cold Spring on Hudson )
03-08-2005, 03:46 PM
Post away and explain to me HOW we will know what you post is the truth ????

alteran
03-08-2005, 03:54 PM
Correcting my misleading info? Actually you thanked me.

I'll post it for you.

Joe, Al, grow up. :rolleyes:

HEY UNCUS, on a deleted thread you had posted that you recieved an Email from me. When I posted that I had never sent you one and called you a liar, you said you would prove it, but never posted the Email sign name or the Email. I light oalteran

-----------------------------------------------

Alterain, the answer to that one is simple. Who recieved the "fake" Emails? Was it Joe's enemy's or Joe's friends?

R. Floyd...I also posted I couldn't...Why because it was a direct link...not an e-mail in itself...When Joe calls me on this bloody thing.using the same technique..it is not listed as an e-mail...at least not on AOL. All I stated was..it had your name on it...I am only saying that it appears you sent it. I am saying that I received it and it had some mention of Floyd in the address.
Understand

R.Floyd
03-09-2005, 10:21 AM
Yes, you posted that I sent you an Email, then you learned that it wasn't an Email. You also learned that somewhere on it it said Floyd. How about an appoligy?

I appoligise for calling you a liar, when actually you posted out of ignorance.

uncas
03-09-2005, 10:23 AM
Fine...I apologize...Someone obviously used your name in vain or to create havoc...I have no control over that...
If I were in your shoes...I'd want to find out.

R.Floyd
03-09-2005, 10:45 AM
Uncas, thankyou, I accept. Uncas, I could actually care less. In retrospect, I shouldn't have called you a liar so boldly but asked questions instead. I have NO control over what other folks actions on here are and won't waste a second of my happy life trying to control something that I can't. Do you think Joe sent it? I'm asking becuase of the point that Alterain brings up on the other Email thread.

uncas
03-09-2005, 10:50 AM
I have no idea...Anyone could have sent it...The fact is...and this is all. the message came in with Floyd in the address. I do not know how anyone can send a message using another's address. I am too old to understand the mechanics of this computer...All I know is what I received...and seriously, that is all....

Joe ( Cold Spring on Hudson )
03-09-2005, 10:51 AM
Let it go uncas it's not worth your time. Floyd still thinks I have WD-40 in my barn LOL :D

uncas
03-09-2005, 10:52 AM
Yup!

R.Floyd
03-09-2005, 10:57 AM
Thats right Uncas, you would solicite the response from me that Joe is trying to invoke.

uncas
03-09-2005, 11:00 AM
Mr. Floyd...
Here is the one fact...and I will leave it at that....
I received a communication...by whatever methods exist in today's tech. world...Floyd was mentioned in the address.
Who sent it...really doesn't matter...If you didn't great and if I accused you of doing so...I apologize...This is now closed.

I am really glad that I am gonna be outta here on my boat for a long...long time after April 1st...
I really don't need this sh*************************************t!
Perhaps some others on this forum should follow suit!

I don't recall sending you an email Al. Yeah, please post it so I can confirm or deny. On second thought, just email it to me. If you are sincere and not just out to stir the pot.

The only private conversation I had with you was using the private message function to the best of my recollection.

Joe, you need to contact AOL about this and in the case of a threat, call the police.

Internet stalking is illegal.

Uncas, we are all aware that some HAVE to be the center of attention. As was once said,

stop picking your nose and start picking your friends with more care.

UNCAS, RFloyd779@aol.com would be the email address you would have received from Floyd, it is in his WBF profile so it's common knowledge. I think I will notify AOL of the Reachbuttter Email Scam. I think they have a very stern policy on such things.

For those less informed, AOL will allow up to 5 screen-names so it is very easy to create a new email especially one like Reachbuttter. The only problem is should AOL take action Reachbuttter and delete it, ALL additional SN will be voided. So essentially if RFloyd779 becomes an invalid AOL account we will know who sent the Reachbuttter Emails. Not pointing any fingers just an experiment like the vinegar & the WD-40 :D :D :D

Can't wait see ya in a few months when the weather and water is warm. fair winds my friend.

Uncas, thank you for posting that beautiful boat in this otherwise distasteful thread.

I sent and email off to AOL TOS that should solve the problem shortly.

This thread has served it purpose, It may be time to pull it.

Ahhh but that is such a pretty boat :D

R.Floyd
03-09-2005, 11:38 AM

I never wanted to join you on your boat and never pursued joining your "outing". Time will tell my friend, time will tell.

uncas
03-09-2005, 11:41 AM
Well....back to basics...why not...Refer to me a Uanus..why not...that is the best you can do...When in doubt....go back to what works for you...
A friendly hand...an apology four days late....
yup...can't ecpect much more...

R.Floyd
03-09-2005, 11:52 AM
Uanis, civil discourse would have dictated an appology from you when you discovered your mistake. And if one was so lacking in moral charactor, then a simple retraction would have been a start. Instead, not only does your accusation stll stands, you only appologised after I posted an obvious mistake on your part. Stop trying to be Joe's lackie, it makes you look less than.

uncas
03-09-2005, 11:55 AM

From: Reachbuttter@aol.com
Date: Sat, 12 Mar 2005 11:36:21 EST
Subject: silicone
To: XXXXXXXXX
X-Mailer: 9.0 for Windows sub 5117

Thanks Norm for pointing that out on my DOVE thread. However, that idiot Scot Bell won't let me have more than 3 pages and won't delete any other posts for me. He deleted most of what I asked him to, ect. I want to ask you if you would go on the DOVE thread and delete you silicone post for me. I'd like to add more pictures and need the room. Thanks again, Joe Foster [/i]

NORM I DID NOT EMAIL THIS TO YOU !
PLEASE NOTICE THE TRIPPLE "T" IN Reachbuttter@aol.com

So I still guess AOL has not taken action :(

Hi,
I will tell you what has work for me for cleaning and bleaching. I have used Oxalic Acid and most of the time used a 2 part teak brightener. Most of my experience has been with various cedars and spruce. (canoe related items) It has always brightened and worked well. Hope this helps.

NOTE: To all those that have received an email from: Reachbuttter@aol.com NOTE the triple "t" in butter.

Please help me and forward the offending email to: TOSReports@aol.com

From AOL's TOS information:
