Beware of strange emails - "CP baiting"

[LavenderLounge]

I just had lunch with a friend in the business and we both have been receiving emails asking strange questions.

Have any of you gotten "friendly" emails asking about how to find illegal porn?

It sounds like Ashcroft's people are trying to bait us into entrapment. Beware of emails like this one:

"Hi,
_
I have_a question to ask you._ I love your site by the way.
_
I see the term Twinks all over the web, but wasn't sure if it ever meant underage people or does it always mean people that are 18 years old.
_
Thanks,
_
Billy"

My site actually has very little mention of twinks.

Thanks for the heads up Mark

For those webmasters who dont know what a twink is:

I made the mistake of responding to the email with a dictionary definition of "twink".

"twink
/twink/ [UCSC] may derive from gay slang for
a cute young thing with nothing upstairs (compare mainstream
"chick")."

He wrote back with this response which really sounds like it's from a cop:

"Does it ever mean underage? The reason I ask is that "chick" could mean girl, if you look up that at dictionary.com"

DO NOT RESPOND TO THESE TYPE OF EMAILS!

You should have replied with the URL to the new Silver Cash site LOL

Not that i am implying anything illegal with it of course they are a stand up company
