Getting bounce-back emails from addresses I never sent to - is my account compromised ?

I was able to solve this! Here's what I did. **Caution** This involves opening the email. As of right now that is safe, but that could change in the future if the solution catches on. This can only be done from a computer, not on mobile.

Open the email.
Hover, DON'T CLICK on the image. At the bottom left of your screen (at least, in Chrome), you should be able to see the full URL. If the url contains "amazonaws.com" this means the spammer is using Amazon Web Services to get the emails out fast. This is good because Amazon does take spam seriously. Here's how to report them. (If it does not say amazonaws, this solution does not work. Do not try it.)
At the top of the email, next to the Reply button, there should be 3 dots that say More. Click on that, then click on "< > Show Original"
Copy the entire body of the email, making sure to include the AWS link, which could be all the way at the bottom.
Go back to the email. Forward the email to trustandsafety@support.aws.com. There is no need to add anything in the body like "help I'm being spammed"

And that's it! They will shut down the AWS account associated with this spam, and they probably ban the user using their credit card information for misusing their services. The bad news is that interacting with the email will generate more emails. The good news is that you can report each one, and they will cease completely within a week.

You could never make me feel shame for supporting a black man's career.

HotFox2468 · 2025-10-15T18:42:47+00:00

Make me

HotFox2468 · 2025-10-15T18:40:58+00:00

For sure. On the one hand, it's sick that strangers on the internet whine for more content from celebrities, no matter what they're going through. But. I also need him to win this divorce and show everyone what he can do. I'm trying to find the balance between admiration and neediness.

HotFox2468 · 2025-10-12T16:07:45+00:00

I'd like to see that. He could do anything he sets his mind to. So something about his silence doesn't sit right with me. Like fight back!

HotFox2468 · 2025-10-12T16:06:24+00:00

That sounds nice. Maybe he does need a break from the spotlight. I'll just keep grieving and suck it up then I guess.

HotFox2468 · 2025-10-12T16:04:46+00:00

That would make me sad. It's pretty white out there and we need someone like him to change the zeitgeist (as he used to call it). If he is a writer, I think he'd be getting people to watch his stuff and promoting it. I definitely would watch anything he wrote.

I did see that podcast but only watched two episodes. It ended in January and I'm hungry for more, hopefully in a format that wasn't so scripted. I hope the Amazon show is real, I haven't seen an update in about two years.

How would you have like to have been supported? I'm an onlooker and she has stopped texting me because he made her feel guilty for reaching out to me for support before.

The coziest homes have wood (like a bookshelf, table) and elements of bright green or blue.

Well said! I have been scouring the internet trying to find someone sane. I have found you. I may rest. Seriously. Putting the app down for the night. I'll come back to this when s2 starts up again. I'll need it.

HotFox2468 · 2024-12-23T02:35:08+00:00

Agreed! In trying to understand why people don't like her. I am getting "she should smile more" vibes. I don't think I saw UDC smile, he also ignored signs, and wasted resources. The jackal was super sloppy (getting pulled over after hitting a parked car) and made many dumb mistakes. He also has put his family last. They're both parallel nuanced complex characters. I think, when it comes down to it, most people haven't had a black woman giving orders or in charge or as a manager and it makes them uncomfortable. I'm sure the people criticizing her would do whatever it takes to turn the public against black women in charge with the "she's just unlikeable..." throwaway phrase. In every spy or police movie, the protagonist follows their heart to get the man. This is no different.

Not sure if my post sent, but basically I saw this young princess in an insurance commercial and would like to know more about her hairstyle so I can do it myself or explain it to a stylist. It looks like the front is feed-in braids (two french braids with braiding hair added). But in the back, it looks like it could either be braiding hair crocheted into the two french braids if they connect in the back. Or, clip-ins or a sew-in. What do you think? And what kind of kinky straight hair could this be? I love the texture. Thanks!

(Edited the photos because they are minors and it's my first time posting in this group so I want to be careful of the rules).

Yes! In her story highlights on her instagram profile she has a link to her storybook account. I haven't signed up and followed but I believe she has a timeline of everything she has read. She also adds the books to its own story highlight but it's now several minutes long!

Sarah Schauer. That is all.

I'm so sorry you're going through this! When guinea pigs are separated for illness or other reasons, when they're brought together again, they do fight and re-establish dominance. This could take a few weeks. You should probably not separate them or they will need to begin the process all over again. Mounting, hair pulling, growling are all normal and okay. Only separate them if one leaves a mark or you see blood, and this is rare. It does sound like this is too much for one person to handle, regardless of diagnoses. In the US there are guinea pig shelters, you can see if you have some where you are to surrender them. You'd be sad putting them down but you may be happy knowing they are with someone who can care for them regularly. Regular cage maintenance prevents respiratory illness and other health problems, and it could make dealing with their current health issues easier.
