It started as a bit of a laugh!!!!

I had a bit of a scare last night.

Well to be exact, Me and Laura had a bit of a scare.

What started out as a bit of a laugh, turned into something a bit more sinister.

In the light of a new day I still feel a bit nervy.

It has made me realize that having my personal details out in full view on the net, can make you a bit vulnerable.

So can using my name as my user name.

Maybe I should change a few things.

 

It all started last night about 6.30pm.

I had a text message on my mobile.

"Hi babe, I've got a new number."

I don't have anyone to call me babe, so I knew it was a wrong number.

I told Laura to text him back and tell him so.

We made a big mistake.!!!!

Thought we'd have a bit of a laugh.

"That's very interesting, but who are you??"  we put.

He came back with "Guess sexy"

I know, I know.!!  We should have stopped then.  We didn't.

We carried on for an hour.

We did at one point think it might be one of my lads having a bit of a joke.

Me and Laura were in hysterics, at one point.

This person said he was going to have a shower.  We asked him if he was playing with his rubber duckie.

I cringe now at some of the stuff we said.

Then he rang.

Oh God!  He actually rang.  More than once.

Laura answered.  She put on this foreign sounding voice. I was laughing in the background.  Laura said he was not.!!!  He sounded serious.!!!!

What were we thinking.  Playing a dangerous game with a complete stranger.

How old am I again!!!!

I asked him where did he get my number from.

He said he already knew it.  WTH.!!!

Was it someone I knew.????  Had I given someone my number.????

The last time he rang and started heavy breathing down the phone, we stopped it dead.  No more texting.  No more phoning.  How stupid were we.???

 

Suddenly an E-mail came through asking about one of our caravan's.

Too much of a coincidence.  We think so.

We advertise our caravans on a couple of websites.  My contact details are on there.

I think that's where he had my number from.

The way it was written, a mixture of capital letters and baby letters.  We knew it was him.

We had a name and a profile, although no details.

I did reply and gave him the prices and everything, just in case it was genuine.  Didn't want to be rude to a possible guest.  I signed it in Keith's name.  He couldn't reply then.

Everything has been quiet since.

Nothing this morning. No E-mails. Just 870 alerts.!!!  No text messages.

But it scared me so much I made sure our house was locked up tight last night.

 

I've learned my lesson.

Any more wrong numbers.  Ignore them.!!!!!

 

 

Take care.
