Just got a prank message

I just got a message from someone saying they read my profile and find me very sexy. They said I would be the perfect man for them. They obviously didnt read anything because they would have noticed that was my husbands picture and I'm female. Even though I hate that people feel the need to do this to us, I thought it was pretty funny.

Please, everyone, be careful here and on all web sites. It's a very complicated world. Let's all be careful when "on line."

I am dealing with the paperwork following my father's death but it's not...
