When I was new to MySpace, found a sex fiend

[mortensorchid]

When I first joined MySpace, like we all do, I walked into the situation innocent and with a childlike neivety. Famous last words, of course. I got a few messages from those who were very obvious, that I just deleted and moved onto the next thing. One day, I got a message from someone who did not have a photo, but described himself as "Professional gentleman looking for a relationship". He went on to say that he was interested in the profile, etc. I responded, somewhat curious, asking what he wished to know.

 

I sent him my Yahoo IM ID, and we talked a bit here and there. He asked to see a picture of me, and I sent one to him of me - and it was clean! I'm not a skank! - and he sent one of him to me. It was of a muscle stud in his underwear. I was a little horrified and rather sickened by this. But I approached it with a sense of humor and a droll sense to see what he would do and say. As he was standing in front of something that looked like a kitchen counter and holding a bowl in his hand, I asked him what was in the bowl. The conversation went like this:

 

Me : "What's in the bowl?"

Him : "Cereal."

M : "Where was this picture taken? Looks like you're in a kitchen."

H : "A golf tournament."

M: "You're just hanging around a golf tournament in your underwear eating cereal? Why didn't someone call the cops?"

H : "I can't believe you would ask me that."

M : "Ask what? What's in the bowl?"

H : "Yeah"

M : "Well ... What did you want me to say?" (I think he was thinking I was going to say how much I wanted what he was packing in the basement.)

H : "Not that."

M : "Tell me something ..."

H : "What?"

M : "On MySpace it says your name is A but on the IM it says your name is B. How come?"

 

Silence

 

M : "You still there?"

H : "I don't think you understand me much."

M : "What?"

H : "I don't think you're interested in me, and you're pissing me off!"

M : "I think this is a perfectly reasonable question here for you to tell me your first name, because you have two different names on the IM and MySpace. Unless steroids make you deaf."

H : "Oh I get it, you have a boyfriend, don't you?"

M : "WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH YOU TELLING ME WHAT YOUR FIRST NAME IS?!?!?!"

H : "Go back to your boyfriend, you bitch!"

 

So what that was, I don't know. Talk about a vain, self centered weirdo. He was clearly just looking for sex, but I think I gave him what for. His MySpace profile is no longer there, unless he's going by another name someplace else.

WOW..I think you may have found more than a sex fiend..

 

It's obvious that this guy was a fake. I would imagine the picture was a fake as well.

 

Who knows what his motives were? He could have been a sex fiend, a Nigerian looking to scam you of your accounts, a serial killer..the only thing for sure is he was up to something very wrong.

 

Please be careful with the myspace. I have seen so many profiles that are open book life stories...workplace info, first and last names, where they are going everyday, etc..I know one person who feels like she needs to update hers everytime she changes what she is doing..Mary is at Barnes and Noble..Mary is taking a bath.. It's very scary and too many kids and adults think the only people reading these are the close friends on the buddy list.
