Last week was a birthday for one of my granddaughters.... DiL and son use a couple of websites, similar to this... they use *board names* just as many of us do here... they are very careful not to reveal too much about themselves as they value their identity and their privacy.

This colleague only went and put a Birthday wish, naming granddaughter, son and DiL with all their proper first names... and where the *party* was going to be held!! She put it on the WWW for goodness sake!! How bl***y stupid and inconsiderate can you get?

To say son and DiL are livid is putting too fine a point on it.

One of my sons had his identity stolen twice.... so we all try to be careful.

Good thing she lives away... I think I'd strangle her myself if I could get my hands on her!

Love

Hi Island... I am doing very well indeed, thank you.... just a case of sitting tight and waiting for the next few years, lol!!

Granddaughter is only a little 'un.... but I don't put threads up here for their birthdays, because I know how careful their parents are.

But with the mentality of some of the yobs around..... grrr!!

Same girl (well woman, she is 40 +) has done this before with others.... eventually she will learn. Probably after my hands have been prised from her throat!!

It is identity fraud they are more concerned about... it has taken us years to sort out the other son's problems with Fraudsters.

Love

Daff xxxx

Hiya Bob... yes, very much so.... but they have to work quite closely together, so it is a bit difficult at the moment.... DiL had to go to the site organisers to get the thread deleted... no delete button on that site!! xxxx
