It's annoying, but I'd feel bad not trying to get the money to the right person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157932 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:46:46 +0000 Mrs. Stroller 157932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd set up an auto-reponder that responds specifically to their email address with some cutesy, yet to the point response. </p> <p>I know that when I send emails my account just auto-fills the 'to' line from my address book when I start typing. Maybe these women just might not know how to correct their address book?? I would assume they don't actually remember email addresses so they aren't typing it in from memory. I barely know my husband's cell phone number and I certainly don't know any of my close friends' email addresses! But I totally agree, if I were to send someone a $100 gift card, I'd make for darn sure I had the correct email address! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157921 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:36:25 +0000 ohapostrophe 157921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This happens to me ALL the time. For awhile some woman was emailing me these really upset emotional emails meant for her son. Even after I emailed her back. So bizarre. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157919 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:33:05 +0000 Mrsbells 157919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would ignore the email and also mark it as spam. if you have already emailed them letting them know they have the wrong email address then thats the best you can do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157902 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:19:17 +0000 mrbee 157902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you're using Gmail, you can create a filter to trash or spam all emails from each person on that list. That way, all emails from them will disappear from your inbox without you ever having to see them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157899 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:16:24 +0000 mediagirl 157899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL I want to use it so badly!!! :) I'll go with the one week option, I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157893 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:11:03 +0000 pastemoo 157893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: LOL. Email and if they don't respond--</p> <p>Take the money and run! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157891 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:10:28 +0000 mrs. wagon 157891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: ditto! That's what I would do. Unless I was SERIOUSLY annoyed... then I would just take the gift card and run!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157889 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:08:14 +0000 Andrea 157889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: I would try one last time and give them a week. If the gift card is still unclaimed, then I would use it! :-D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157887 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:06:42 +0000 winniebee 157887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take the gift card and run! JK I would email her again one last time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157879 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:03:35 +0000 chopsuey 157879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would use it. Clearly a minority here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157878 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:03:24 +0000 PBandBaseball 157878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that one last email saying that all future emails will be marked as spam and not read is the way to go. I feel bad for the other Jill but this sounds way too annoying for you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157875 Mon, 14 May 2012 12:00:48 +0000 mediagirl 157875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: @blushink: I already sent an email stating that and saying that all further emails will be considered SPAM and immediately deleted. That was my 6th email to this person/this group, as well! I'm so annoyed, I just want to ignore it and let them deal with the problem when they realize the other Jill didn't get her $100! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157869 Mon, 14 May 2012 11:54:56 +0000 Andrea 157869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would do what @blushink said...but only because I feel bad about the other Jill missing out on $100 from Amazon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157867 Mon, 14 May 2012 11:52:58 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 157867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would email them back with one last notification.<br /> And tell them that any email sent from now on no matter the content will be disregarded or spammed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157865 Mon, 14 May 2012 11:52:04 +0000 Mrs.Someone 157865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Forward the email to the right person and maybe ask her to try and get everyone to correct the email address? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/interesting-situation#post-157855 Mon, 14 May 2012 11:46:38 +0000 mediagirl 157855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, for about 2 years now, I have had a group of people emailing me from somewhere in Minnesota. Apparently they have a woman with my name in their group and keep messing up her email. I have repeatedly asked them to stop emailing me and let them know that the other Jill might actually want to receive her emails; please update your group lists!!</p> <p>Well, today I got three more emails from people. One was a $100 gift card to Amazon.com from one of the women in the group! Seriously. If you were going to send someone money, wouldn't you make doubly sure you are sending to the right person?</p> <p>I'm trying to figure out what to do now. Ignore the email? Email the person back saying, once again, you have the wrong email....? I want to just ignore it and let them figure it out I'm so annoyed with the whole deal. </p> <p>What would you do? </p>
