Who are we really talking too?
A couple of really nasty, dare I say threatening messages have been sent to me yesterday. Linked it seems to someone from here who does not like the way I post.
You think coming on here would be pretty safe. I mean its a board for people living in OZ, if I was entering some forum for a bizzare sect or sex site I might expect to be contacted by weirdos but not on a Forum for adults who's only interest is moving from one country to another.
I'd just like to say take care with your personal details everyone, seems like moving is not the only thing on some peoples agenda.

Think everyone should take notice of this.
Thanks for the warning - I'm the worlds worst for giving too much away - will think next time.
Hope it wasn't too awful for you - can you not report it and get them fried off into cyber vapour ?

There are plenty of people who post their e-mail addresses up here. My advice is don't for privacy and to prevent spam.

Scary stuff Dotty!!!
Do you know who it is.....this forum is becoming a bit personal recently - I think everyone should take a step back and just think a moment "No really we dont know who the hell we're talking to" weirdos do get in everywhere (no pun meant)!!

Oh Dotty - what a awful thing - why can't some people just accept that sometimes people hold differing opinions from them but that doesn't mean you have to be nasty about it.
And via PM is the sly cowardly way of doing it.

Not Nice!
Oh this is a worry, how do I protect myself and my personal e-mail getting out to the nutty ones?
Dotty hope you have had nicer ones since this. Bit crap to go through this!
The Forum is not about threats its about experience. Play nicely children!
