    Yes the facebook connection is there as you described. Which brings up the question of why this person contacted me through work if she found me through Facebook.

    What's the other forum's name?

      You'd be amazed at how much we found out about Michael Rafferty before he went to trial.

      I'm at home taking a snow day if you'd like me to do some digging (you can PM me). I have huge curiousity lol

        then do not get drawn into anything. Its your friends choice to meet with the guy or not. Are you implying that she needs someone to make those types of decisions for her? Let her make the choice.

          ^^This^^

          Do a courtesy follow up after the weekend, just in case your friend is dumb enough to go ahead with the hookup.

            Weird email sent by a weird person no doubt.

            You told your friend, that is enough. She should share it with the guy she was going to date.

            They can decide what to do about it on their own.

            Makes for a good 'how we met' story

              Well, you've informed your friend before she was supposed to meet him, so she's aware of the concern and it's her decision what she wants to do. That's all you can do.

              If the sender had legitimate evidence to support what they're saying, they could call the police I guess... but then again, I assume he wouldn't be on the loose if he'd actually hurt "many women".

                I received the following email at my work email:

                "Dear [SingingDad], I am writing to express concern for your friend [Friend]. She is friends with a sexual online predator, [man I don't know], who has victimized many women. Please make sure she is safe.



                That's a huge responsibility this person is laying on you, to "make sure she is safe." If I were in that position, I would call the police and inform them of the email. From what I have seen on the news, police are very interested in apprehending on-line perps, especially so in the victimization of many.

                You've notified your friend and if you also let the police know about the email, that should be enough (I daresay more than sufficient) action on your part, and should set your mind at ease.
