Spam emails and Linked In
There is a common virus around at the moment. It hit Hotmail accounts and recently it hit Yahoo accounts. It sends out a spam email from you to everyone you have ever contacted. Worse still everyone else's email addresses are in the same cc bar. Visible to everyone who receives this spam email.
If youre hit by this virus your wife and Uncle George are going to be wondering who mistresswhatever@yahoo.co.uk is. Another common visitor to my professional email account is Linked In. On their behalf, past contacts and enquirers are made known to me via the Linked In invitation. I don't have a Linked In account but if I had I'd know their full name, location, and work history. If you are going to email mistresses use a for purpose email account. Don't use it for anything else. Don't ever use your personal accounts, known to family, friends, and work colleagues to contact us. Or your secrets won't be secret for much longer

The hotmail / yahoo virus may also be a concern if you email Dommes with these kinds of account. Not that this will always be obvious, because sometimes mail will route there from another address.
I wonder how many client lists have gone flyabout in this way? A couple of other things I've noticed recently - Two or three Dommes on Twitter who've got geotags on their tweets (probably won't be visiting them in a hurry) Snapchat searching phone numbers in your contact list and pulling back user names - which I guess might be a prob. if you're there as yourself.

It's awful what these social apps do, they connect everything up and then invite everyone you know to everything you do, without your knowledge and permission* exposing your life to everyone you know.
*because the average user just isn't aware of how these things work

I told one domme recently that her real name was being displayed. She had correctly created her e-mail address with her professional name, but she also had a facebook account in her own name (presumably using the same e-mail address, which is why they are associated) and this name was visible.
I've tried to create several layers of deceit, but no doubt these could be breached. |
