sweetowen: I got a message from a guy in my mailbox today. There was no picture. He said he'd like to meet me & told me all his likes & dislikes... blah, blah, blah....
But what really surprised me was that he actually gave me his phone number! Is this pretty usual? I've never had anyone go that far before. I've had them leave me email addresses, but I just think that was way too forward. He doesn't even know me!
What do y'all think?
I have it happen all the time...I wouldn't call...it's either scammer or a mass emailer...I have had scammers send me both their e-mail address and their phone number together...

Or scarey weird Ones like I got yesterday, and I didn't give one my number.

Right...either way..it's not normal for someone to send their phone number to someone they haven't talked to before...that's a big red flag for me!!!!!

I agree, and I also don't like the personal emails being offered on first contact. Just seems a bit too much too soon.

I kinda feel that way too. I think you need to get to know a person better before giving out some personal info. He also told me his first name & what town he's from. I dunno... maybe I'm just weird....
