The latest "member" -- Dushel Tesla --- is a total spammer. They are all over the internet, joining groups with no real presence. PLEASE remove this "person". They may have joined to do harm and they are certainly not really interested in mail art.
Thanks, Ruud, for the removal of this Spammer. And we must always be careful when we get a message that asks us to "email" if we do not know who that person is. Be careful be safe!
Has any one had an email from Mira Donovan? A new members as of 4 hours ago, emailed me to get in touch re: a project. Hmmm. I sent a message via IUOMA to them. Will see what happens.
MGS, I think 95% of the spammers out there do it in hopes of financial gain, though fraud, theft of financial info., etc. Then there are the few who truly just like to create "chaos" -- it is their warped idea of fun. What a world!
"Hello .I am Mrs.Kacee Holmes, an aging widow suffering from long time illness (Esophageal Cancer). I have some important information (charity proposal) for you, May God continue to bless you, Please reply me to my email below for more details.…"
Oh well the invocation to God is a give away, my many rich relatives in Nigeria used to write in the same style, keen on leaving me their money. They have not contacted me for ages. I miss them.
I have been known to alert both the domain supporting their email address and to write to the Attorney General or equivalent of the country specified in their plea. None of that mail has ever been returned so I know my letter got through.
Also, the pigeon-English used to create their message is often so bad that I deemed some of it comical and saved many over the years in a separate folder in my email portal.
Gmail seems to be the portal of choice although yay-hoo was more popular in years past.
My parents got duped by a "grandchild in trouble" email once, but fortunately a sibling stopped it before any money/credentials changed hands.
At times I wonder what Rain Rien Nevermind would post here; greatly missed.
Greetings to you. From mail Artist. I know this message may come to you as a surprise. I'm Inaya Suru. I just went through your profile on mail Artist, so interesting. I would like to have a conversation with you and it is very important.

The next day I received a very similar letter:
Greetings from Mail Art. I hope this Email will find you in good health, and I know the message will come to you as a surprise. I'm Caragh McCarthy. from Portland OR, US. I saw your Email address in mail art. Your profile is so interesting. I would like to have a conversation with you. Am waiting for your urgent prompt.

SPAMagain. Unfortunately, Cooper Turner [ http://iuoma-network.ning.com/profile/CooperTurner ] violates the rules of the community by posting ads on the IUOMA portal for those services and goods that his company offers to customers. Take a look at these texts:
The site, which Mr. Cooper Turner called his own (in the Profile Information section), is a marketing portal offering a full range of digital marketing services.
A new member started to send unsollicitated messages to random member begging for helo and money. Spammers are always removed, so he/she is removed. Sorry for the trouble is you got such a message.

Hi. I would like to draw attention to the strange activity of the user named ‘Inaya’:
https://iuoma-network.ning.com/profile/Inaya?xg_source=activity
‘Inaya’ emailed me a letter:
Greetings to you.
From mail Artist.
I know this message may come to you as a surprise. I'm Inaya Suru. I just went through your profile on mail Artist, so interesting. I would like to have a conversation with you and it is very important.
An urgent response will be appreciated.

Very interestingly, a spammer called ‘Caragh’ was previously banned from this portal.
