Nope...It was CaL...aka Clinton's a Liar, aka Connie Hair, who was getting contributions and sending him cigars and stuff...she defended him and gave the old salts who could smell a rat a lot of grief. They knew their stuff and exposed him for the fraud he was. It was a work of art. Them's was the good ole days. Yes indeedie.
Hi, amom. I never got contributions for anything (I wouldn’t know a good box of cigars from a bad one). Another freeper sent a box of cigars to me for the person posing as military/DITHF. At the time I stupidly didn’t mind giving out my address to someone I didn’t know on the internet.
I had corresponded in email with what I thought were several different wives (different email accounts) of the “group” of active duty guys claiming to post under the DITHF name from active duty overseas. I thought they were legitimate but was duped. I forwarded the cigars to a stateside post office box one of the “wives” gave me via email. That’s as far as it went.
And, yes, Sneakypete outed the guy—vaguely remember several members of a military group were making sure the guy was held accountable. I told one of the guys in the group investigating everything I knew, giving him the post office box address and email addresses. I think the perp was former reserves or some such. The group did not share the results of their findings with me.
Sneakypete and I used to get into it on those threads! But we ended up email buddies after a time.
Can’t believe this has been over a decade!
Thanks for sending the thread, basil. Lots of old memories! =]
