So, the e-mails continue. I don't know how many of you remember this story. I posted some time ago about someone e-mailing me from an address of "iknowamy(insert my last name here)" e-mail account. I have had numerous people go serching for the e-mail address as well as try and send e-mail which comes back returned. Sure, sounds like spam, right? NO. This is from a person who knows details about me...My past. I am 99.9% certain I know who they are from though they never sign their name. There is only one person who would leave that series of "clues" in the subject.
So, some people suggested marking that e-mail as spam so I never see them. I decided after much debate, that wasn't a good option. I apparently bring crazies out of the woodwork and after dealing with my fair share of stalkers (real ones), I know that while it's frustrating to deal with, keeping as much documentation on file as you can is required. You know, it's always that hope for the best, prepare for the worst thing. So, the only thing I could do was start filing them away in a saved folder should I ever need them for anything. But, I also know from events I have already been through, unless you make 1 attempt to say "Stop", should anything legal ever come up, you may not have a leg to stand on. So, today was my day.
I mean seriously, this man is 43 years old and he's acting like a child. The e-mails have been coming at random every few weeks to about 6 weeks for well over 6 months now. I had deleted the 1st e-mail thinking it was spam but know the 1st one I saved was in the end of November and the one I had deleted came about 2 months prior. This has been going on for far too long. I am actually suprised that after the last one, where he tried to see if I actually used that e-mail anymore and got no response, that he decided to e-mail me again this morning (twice). I just hate stupid people is all...Needed to vent.
