I think you have my letter

"Anonymous" text message (ATM) received today at 3:01 pm to 9054420352

ATM: Hello. Do you run a blog about GO trains?

Yep.

ATM: I got this number from it. I think you have my letter

Letter?

ATM: There was a scan.

Wait ... OH THE LETTER ... Who was the letter to?

ATM: XXXX. Where can I meet you?
Oh lawdy! The suspense (jazz hands).

I haven't written back.

Why?

Because I don't believe for a second it's legit. I showed a few people that letter uncensored so the name isn't the proverbial carrot.

So stop messing around and get back to work!

By the way, I don't know if many Rogers mobile users know this but you can check and send text messages from a browser so you don't have to type/use your phone. I find it handy when I know I'll be chatting with someone for some time (such as the Georgetown Ghost guy). Check out this link http://websms.rogers.page.ca/2way/

    It *is* possible it's legit. What do you do now?

    I'm confused - did they get the name right or not?

    Yes.

    But then again, 11 of my co-workers and five of my train friends can, too.

    Ask for details on the other pages?

    But what if it's not your co-workers and your train buddies? How are you going to play this? I suspect this person is now reading your site if they've texted you.
