Anyone know a Cora Joehnck?

This person came on Skype today and wrote: "Hello there, I was looking around the directory and I found your profile, and you seemed worth talking to ;)"

There is only one directory I am in folks.

So has anyone ever heard of her?

Jo, I haven't seen this in a while but it looks very much like a scam that that used to circulate and will send you to sites you don't want to see. Just delete the message and let her find another friend somewhere.

She can't look at the directory unless she is in the directory. That's the only way to get a copy. I have about 10 years of RCTQ directories -- and no one by that name is in any of them!

So I would be very suspect! Don't see how it could be legit.

That's what I was thinking too. Scammers are very good at generic messages that sound "almost" legit. If she was real then she'd add personal details so you could confirm who she is. If you don't know her then delete her. Allison

I get lots of junk e-mails like this (usually addressed to any names that begin with 'S', and also ones wanting to be my friend on Facebook! They all sound as though they could be genuine, and say they are local but as they mention words like 'fun' I don't think they are really directed at a 70 year old staid married lady!

Sounds like a typical phishing message. Delete and ignore.

They soon stop. I used to get them when I first started with Skype, but barring and reporting a few and they stopped coming, sharpish.
