Back last month I wrote a post about 'Pat' (Not the person's real name) which you can read here.
Well on Monday this week I received an email addressed to 'You Cute Brit' that claimed to be from a group of women who attend two of the services here at the church. They were requesting that I add to my song list for Sunday mornings some of the songs that were done at the Saturday night service.
The email was:
i) Typed all in capitals
ii) Contained rudimentary grammar and some spelling mistakes.
iii) From one woman (name beginning with 'M') claiming to represent a group of people.
iv) From a hotmail email address that unusual - i.e. not a person's name.
I checked out the name and the email address in the church membership database and we had no records for such a person. Nobody on staff seems to know this person.
I hit 'Reply' to post a response and I noticed that when I did so the return email address was not the one listed in the message! Further investigation revealed it to be from Pat.
I forwarded it to my superiors at church and did not respond.
This morning I received another unusual email
The email was
i) Typed all in capitals
ii) Contained rudimentary grammar and some spelling mistakes.
iii) From one woman (name beginning with 'M') claiming to represent a group of people.
iv) From a hotmail email address that unusual - i.e. not a person's name.
Now the person named in this second email was different to the first, but they also do not check out in the church database. I cannot prove that that this second email also came from 'Pat', but as you can see it is so similar to the first it is very suspicious.
This second email was a personal attack on my character :(
We know who 'Pat' is, we just have to work out how to approach this person. Please pray for them, in my opinion they are definitely in need of help, but I'm not sure if we are the best people to give it too Pat.

That is so creepy almost. I will definatly pray for said person and pray for God to give you and your superiors the wisdom on how to handle this
"well well well; isn't that special?" :)
Odd. Were these threatening letters? The mind is so fragile. Better to be safe..
