Hey there, I'm Erica. I got your email address from a friend and thought I'd get in touch. I'm kind of new to this whole thing, the internet and meeting people on the internet. I thought I'd tell you a little about myself, I'm 26 and single. I work at a jewlery shop as a salesperson, and I'm looking to meet new friends. I'm open for anything, we can be penpals, friends or I am open to an intimate relationship. I hope thats not too forward. I'm very into dining, camping, outdoors, dogs, beaches (when I'm lucky), and sunday football. I'm trying really hard to understand better, but I just get a kick out way men adore sunday football. Well if you'd like to talk some more then send me back an email, I have some pics for you too see as well. My email is
************@hotmail.com


Hope to talk some more
Erica

Yep, I usually get a chuckle or two out of them.

Then I press the delete key and do something more productive. Like playing AO.

First off, I met my RL wife online 4 years ago, and we are now a family, She, me, and 9 month old boy genius, so internet meetings are real.

This is crap. You will email back, and some mailbot will send you some pics. then give you a website to go to and you will have to pay to see more.

Does the return address match the one she quoted in the email?

Is her email sonething like: hotlucious@hotmail, or is it Ericajones@hotmail?

What did your 2 friends say?

I guess that in truth it could be real. But I seriously doubt it.

Capacitor is right, It was foolish to include "Sunday football" That was too much BS to walk. Beside if she were a fan she would just say "Football", or NFL, as it comes on Mondays as much as sunday anyway.

She wouldn't say NFL if she wasn't from America ((you know, from the outside world )).

I had one not so long ago - but I have a girlfriend and I'm not the sort of desperate person to go answering random emails. Now, if that email had your friend names and didn't talk about football/photographs...

...never know heehee

it's spam like this and the rest that slows the Internet down

Take care

America is all there is, and the world is flat. and the sun revolves around the earth, and the stars are pin holes in a glass sphere.

Im sorry, you are right there is more to this world than just NFL football. But my guess is that football, soccer, rugby, whatever still comes on other days than just Sunday.
