Anonymous letters

[Sunseasand1]

Has anyone ever sent or received an anonymous letter.
What was the result?

Years ago me and a friend made an anonymous phone call to tip off a girl that her partner was cheating. They split.

@minion, did you give her info, names dates etc, or just a general

I said something along the lines of “Hi .... you need to watch your boyfriend’ and then hung up.

I sent a Facebook message to a lad I had gone thru school with.
He was gushingly happy and posting loads about moving in with his lovely girlfriend and planning wedding.
I then had another friend who is friends with a bloke who's having a affair.... with the lovely girlfriend.

She moved out and in with the other man.

He's now with a wonderful woman and they have a daughter. He is so happy I'm glad I told him.

Yes I have sent one or two.
One

They both resulted in an investigation. I'm actually thinking about doing another one. It's been causing me sleepless nights.

Mine were more in a professional capacity I might add.

What do you mean by an investigation

It was a work related thing. Under the whistle blowing policy.

I received anonymous letters weeks ago which I started a thread about. The police wouldn't do anything because the letters weren't threatening in nature. So I just ignored it and I haven't received anymore luckily. Are you thinking of sending a letter or have received one?

I have sent a Facebook message under a false name.

I received one just before I married exdh. It gave dates he had met up with her. They were evenings I was at work. I worked 5 evening a week. What the sender didn't realise is that dh to be, had started working alongside me as a second job to save for the wedding.

So I knew it was fake, never found out about was and would never do it to someone else.

Are you planning on doing this Sunsea?

I received one to do with a planning application I was involved with. Made a load of allegations about backhanders etc. with no evidence at all. I binned it. I'm 99% sure I know who sent it and if I could prove it I'd tell them they were a bloody fool. Don't send them and if you get one - bin it.

I received an anonymous message from a fake fb account telling me details of ex’s affair.

I’m a way I was glad to have my suspicions confirmed, but it arrived at a terrible time so kids found out, and I’ve always been tormented by who sent it.

Please don’t send such a message anonymously. And think about timing. I can still feel the sick awful feeling just thinking about it.

I sent my friend one off a fake fb profile. Another friend had come across her boyfriend's profile on a shagger's site, including reviews from people whilst they were together. I didn't tell her to her face because we had told her of things for the years before and it had fell on deaf ears - I also didn't want it coming back to my friend who had found the profile. If you're going to send one make sure it's genuine and include proof, don't make it inconspicuous and give room for doubt.

A close relative got one with her name on and details of her dp's other women.
She left him.

Yes proof/evidence is a must if you're notifying the recipient of something.

Yeah I’ve received them before - we know who they are from and they’re completely made up.... husband has an ex who wants him back and it would seem is willing to do just about anything....
