I’ve never checked my m’s partly, partly because I never thought I’d get any. I saw today where they were - and this was from March this year. I didn’t realize people were looking for hookups on mumsnet. Has anybody else experienced this?

It's NOT because of your username it's because someone is a test and thinks it's ok to send. They might have sent it to you because they think they're in wit more of a chance but it isn't because of YOU. I've only had MLM onesConfused
Hi there Tiny (or whatever you change your name to), We're sorry about this horrible experience, and as we said in our email we have banned the man who was doing this. Just to confirm what Wellhellyeah said, though, it's not the fault of your name' choices fault that this happened, it's just someone being opportunistic and creepy. There's every chance he'd have targetted RoughAsFuck as well (honestly if that name hasn't been taken we're 'avin that). Anyway, apologies again. Anyone receiving these sorts of messages doesn't have to put up with it, we want to hear from you, and we're glad you reported it to us. Thanks.
