Looking for a Dimensional Warp Generator! Seriously!!!

***Cloverfield*** · #1 08-24-2003, 04:13 PM

Okay, I recieve a lot of junk and spam mail to my email address. Porn, penis enlargements, online pharmacies ... you name it, I seem to get it. Recently I've been getting this one titled "Dimensional Warp Generator Neeeded". Every time I saw it I thought ... what is this, Star Trek? And would delete it. Well today I decided to read it for some reason. And it's quite funny indeed.

:

Hello,

I'm a time traveler stuck here in 2003.
Upon arriving here my dimensional warp generator stopped working. I trusted a company here by the name of LLC Lasers to repair my Generation 3 52 4350A watch unit, and they fled on me.
Since nobody in this timeline seems to be able to deliver what I need (safely here to me), I will have to build a simple time travel circuit to get where I need myself. While it might be hard to find parts in this time to build anything decent, I need easy to follow schematics from the future to build one which is safe and accurate that will not disrupt the time space continuum with both forward and backward capability accounting for temporal location settings (X, Y, Z,) which can be built out of (readily available) parts here in 2003. Please email me any plans you have. I will pay good money for anything you send me I can use. Or if you have a dimensional warp generator available, and are 100% certain you have a (safe secure) means of delivering it to me please also reply with a secure way to contact you. Send a separate email to me at:

Thank You
Brian Appel

I can't believe this guy is actually sending spam mail claiming he is from the future. What does he think he'll get in touch w/ another guy from the future. LOL Either that or it's a prank spam mail seeing if anyone is stupid enough to reply. Either way, I thought it was amusing enough to share.

You should reply and see what he says! What if he really is from the future! He could tell you stuff about the future!

That's pretty funny though!

Man, I've had this same message too... I never read it till now...

Poor man, he should contact E.T for help...

Yeah Ive never received the email about it. But Ive read plenty of this type of stuff online. Most of the time these things are bogus, but theres always that.00001 percent of a chance that it "could" happen.

Upon reading, I thought it was going to be one of those e-mails asking you to give out your credit card number and such, which I get all the time, but no. Hmmmmm. Maybe the guy is crazy, looking for attention, or both. He also failed to tell you what time he was supposedly from......any idiot knows if you're pretending to be a time traveler, you have to tell them what time you're from!

And what's so interesting about visiting 2003? Why visit this time? Nothing exciting is going on....now at least.

You've obviously never watched Star Trek. Unless your mission is absolutely vital and people who can help will only help if they know more about you, you absolutely do not tell anyone what time you're from. You do as little as possible to contaminate the time/space continuum.

Amusing spam, though I've never got it. I never get any spam with my latest email account, and I've had it for months. I think the most likely explanation is it's a sci-fi geek or else just some guy having a laff. It's the people who reply under the delusion that they know what they're talking about who we should be making fun of.

Unless it's all real, and we're just being naive, albeit with good reason. There's still a small part of me that believes in all the paranormal stuff, though the only fueling it gets now is from sporadic visits to forteantimes.com.

DO NOT reply to that email. It is an email address confirmer. If you reply, you will get more spam.

The only way that you can get spam, is if you have visited porn websites, or if you have signed up to recieve free services such as free webhosting.

It's sad but true.

***Wil*** · #8 08-24-2003, 05:58 PM

Oh, so sadly it's not as exciting as we'd all hoped. Oh well, we can still laugh at it.

GrigtheSlig · #9 08-24-2003, 06:01 PM

Aww, darnit, I really wanted him to be a time traveler that is really stuck in this time! That would have been cool. Oh well.

Yeah sometimes you sign up for stuff, and at the bottom, in tiny text, it says, "Share all my info with other companies," and the checkbox next to it is pre-checked, so if you don't see it, you're screwed.

And Max is right about time traveling. You're not supposed to have any contact with anyone from the past or it could disrupt future events. If you believe in chaos theory, like me, even the presence of someone being in the past could disrupt the future in huge ways, even if the time traveler doesn't talk to anyone.

It's at this point I'd like to share with you the first ever truely genuine photograph of aliens. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=14895

Enjoy!

oddguy · #12 08-24-2003, 10:05 PM

I believe somewhat in paranormal activity, aliens and such, but I don't believe everything people say out there!

Max, if you're interested, I suggest you take a look at this site and, read what the page says at the top, and listen to the sounds. Creepy!

Joshy · #14 08-25-2003, 05:25 AM

Yeah, I never reply to any of those emails. LOL

I know exactly why I get porn, because I caught one of my brothers looking at in on the computer once. Of course my email address was the registered one, so guess who gets stuck w/ it. I went and bought Norton Internet Security after I found out, but by then it was too late, the bastards already had my email address.

However, there is another way you also get spam ... and that is when your email address is listed publicly. I get spam to email addresses like webmistress@oddworld.au.com, info@oddworld.au.com and I never use those addresses other than to have them listed on my website. There's software out there that harvests email addresses from the internet .. I know, because my boss got me to try it out. LOL ... I hated having to do that. I guess that's what happens when your website is spidered for search engines, you get stuff like that too.

Well I see no one decided to waste their million dollars on that. Gotta love these online scams!

I used to believe in aliens and stuff ... I still kind of do, but not as much as I used to. I come across some people who just took it all too far, which kind of put me off believing in the whole thing.

Those EMF voices are fake. You can stand about 20 yards from a TV in another room and turn the microphone on a PC on and make sounds like that. Then you just simply mess about with it until it sounds about right.

White noise is generated by energy in the environment. Static electricity from the fans and motors in PC's generate large amounts of static, along with underground or overhead electric lines.

In fact, if you stand close enough you can hear the noise from national grid power lines.

The fact that we are told that we hear a voice, makes it even worse. If you amplify any part of a static signal, you are bound to hear something that sounds like a human voice, literrally because we all hear hundreds of thousands of words spoken every day.
