ALERT! ALERT!

[Archives1]

Update - I tried to send an email to myself but the forum doesn’t allow that.

One way to find out if the forum is being moderated is to post a bunch of swear words and offensive statements, but I don’t dare.

If you e mail the contact us there are people who respond. I dont know their reasons for setting up NAFC. It might take a couple days for a response to your e mail to NAFC

I am willing to broadcast the message so everyone can see what the alert is all about. Here it is,

This is Mark Weatherhead from Medex Research in London, UK.

I am conducting a study in the USA with patients who have been diagnosed with OVERACTIVE BLADDER.

I am contacting you as you might well qualify for this study.

The study is a simple 15 minute telephone interview.

This research is STRICTLY confidential and non-attributable.

Hi Snow, Sometimes I have seen swear words here like maybe one or two in a post and that seems to get by. As far as radically offensive statements I don't think I've ever seen any. But if someone sends a message to this thread that says, "Don't you dare...." then maybe it's a sign it's moderated!

Too late

Thank you all for alerting us to this poster. We have contacted him and asked him to not reach out to members directly. We have not, as of yet, been contacted by the company to conduct or recruit for any type of research with them. As most of you know, we prohibit that type of activity unless it comes through us and we have had the opportunity to fully vet the company and can assure that it is reputable and worthy of your time. Thank you to all who alerted us to this. Please always feel free to contact us through the moderator reports, or direct message, with any of your concerns and we will address it as soon as we can. We are a small staff so it may sometimes take us a couple of days, but rest assured we will address it.
Thank you again to all of you wonderful people for keeping these forums honest.

Sarah Jenkins

How did he get our direct emails as I understood that it had to go thru the forum. Thats a little unsettling NAFC. Am i missing an explantion?

@NAFC Thank you for reaching out.

@mezajarjarbinks, I guarantee you that there are leaks. Lots of them. Just not the kind you refer to.

I agree. It is very upsetting.I talked for 25 minutes to this man
and he said he would put 100.00 on my Amazon account.

My son was murdered on September 29th and I am not thinking straight.
It was on a site I believed to be safe. Now I have more to worry
About.

This is a nightmare.

@Pmikula Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry about your son. You must feel devastated. Thank you for making time for us here. I’m also sorry you were swindled by this guy.

@Doug He only sent us a private message via NAFC. Most of us get emailed when we receive a private message. So it only appeared that he emailed us directly.

 

[Archives1]

Yes, I was also emailed directly. This is very upsetting as we have felt safe and comfortable discussing very private matters

 

[Archives1]

That’s why I don’t use my real name or face in my photo.

Pmikula so very very sorry to learn of your news. There is nothing I can say but we are hear for you in any way we can be as your friends on line.

Mark Weatherhead take notice. Real people live here. If you have not done so please deposit 100 in Pmikulas account and think long and hard about the people you reach out to.
