Someone has an almost identical Gmail address as mine, but without the dot between first name and surname. However, Google doesn't care about the dot and I get most of their emails. I just cancelled a golfing holiday to Scotland for them. I can't stand golf.
@fesshole @MoonCat remember when that happened to you?
@FreakyFwoof @fesshole yes. I was getting their university info and book lists from an American state college.
@MoonCat @FreakyFwoof @fesshole I get sent complementary tickets to some classic car bullshit from a chap called John. Each time I set him straight he acts like it's my fault lol.
@Scott @MoonCat @FreakyFwoof @fesshole I got sent someone's medical records. I contacted the sergery and got a very appologetic person on the end of the line. I gave them all my email addreses and said, "if your patients come up with any of these, they're not theirs."
@bigpawedbear @Scott @MoonCat @FreakyFwoof @fesshole
I received someone’s financial information from their broker. Informed the broker they should probably make a call to the guy who was supposed to receive it to find out what his actual email address is. Never heard back, but stopped getting those emails.
@pomegranate_stew @bigpawedbear @Scott @MoonCat @FreakyFwoof @fesshole Yup, been there too. House purchase and some expensive holiday bookings. I stopped getting the emails after a few corrections and now worry that the clearly quite elderly not.me@ has died :/
