from FB

Yo! ...loving Southern Indiana! ...does anyone have contacts/host families in Birdseye or Huntington, IN for Friday & Saturday?? Storms are a coming and we will be in the thick of it...thanks

I certain that he meant Huntingburg, Indiana, not Huntington.

How about any contacts, in or around here:

CENTRAL TIME ZONE!! ...ya ya ya, loooong day today to Oakland City, IN...still looking for a place to stay if you know anyone!??

[cjp1973]

Anyone have contacts near Mascoutah, IL.  Jonathon, Kanoa and Ben are looking for a host.  kivawalk@gmail.com

Also check out kivawalk.com for details on the St. Louis kiva awareness event!

Did anyone else get this email supposedly from Jonathon?  It seems suspicious to me, aside from the western union request, it does not sound like Jonathon's choice of wording compared to messages I know he did send to me.  (No mention of Kanoa either.)  His last team message was sent on May 20th.

Has anyone seen him lately? 

Edit: This was emailed directly to me, and the address is the same as email I know he did send to me.  So yes, I think his email has been hacked!  I wonder if he can even get into it now?

Please Help!!!

Hello,

I'm really sorry for not informing you about my urgent traveling to Scotland for a Seminar. It was something urgent and i didn't even inform anyone about this traveling. Please i need your help because my wallet got lost on my way to the hotel I lodged myself. Inside the wallet was my phone,cards,diary, including my return ticket and other vital documents. Though I have reported the case to the police but I'm really stranded here. I would have emailed you before now but I only got access to an internet now.

I sent you this email so that you could help me out with $1800 or any amount you could afford just to pay for my hotel bills and to sort myself out here before i get my missing wallet back. I will appreciate any amount you could afford and I will pay you back with interest upon  my arrival.

Kindly transfer the money to me directly via the western union money transfer using my name and the address below. I will appreciate your kindness and fast response.  After the transfer, just email me the money transfer control number [MTCN].

Name :   Jonathon Stalls
Address: 101 Broughty Ferry Rd, Dundee, DD4 6JE, Scotland United Kingdom[UK]

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Waiting for your positive response...

Thank you

Jonathon

Hi David, no, no email here. Depending on the way you got the message I would think that maybe either Jonathon's email account got hacked or someone has taken the effort to send messages through the Kiva page to members of the Kiva walk lending team or through Facebook to members of the group there.

Who did this in which way ever - shame on you to misuse such a wonderful initiative! 

[cjp1973]

I just spoke to Jonathon, he is now back in cell range.  I informed him of what the spam email said and the facebook postings.  So he will get them updated as soon as possible......
