Replies not getting through

Post by peterhopkins »

After several successful sales, I've recently started to ecounter a problem when replying to enquiries. I send off a response, which is recorded as 'successful', but latterly they have all started to back up in my "Sent but unread" box - and I'm wondering whether they're getting through at all.
The mystery has deepened with the appearance of messages from "miyobe3217", who apparently joined very recently. Thse messages aren't responses to my ad., but - very oddly - incorporate in their text one of the genuine messages from other people. After that, I can never get through to these others. And there's a jokey footnote about eels! Is someone maliciously messing about & obstructing?

Firstly, if you check KarenEurope's profile - memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=57793, you will see that she was last active on 31/7. In other words, she has not logged on again since she posted on your thread, and therefore has not read your PM.

tippo12 was last active on 4/8, so might not have seen your PM.

miyobe3217's behaviour seems somewhat suspicious. Please do not respond to any message from them for now - it may take a day or two for this to be investigated.

The eels reference is an irritating automatic signature on some smartphones, which I think owners can turn off, but do not all bother to do so.

NB I have also sent you a PM.
