MtnMama Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Apparently Lisa Jorgenson has resurrected an old email list or harvested a new one, because I am receiving copies of the "Lake Chapala Reporter" and the "Guadalajara Reporter" trolling for subscriptions. I removed myself from her mailing lists years ago. The two site are a scam - she "borrows" stories from other papers and charges a subscription to view them. Her URL is guadalajarareporter.mx. Don't waste your money, it just encourages more fraud. For anyone who doesn't know, the actual site for real Guadalajara Reporter is https://theguadalajarareporter.net 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexy Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 I don't know how she keeps going. I'm amazed that anyone might actually subscribe to her publication. I receive her promotions to subscibe just about everyday, read her provacative come-ons, and then delete. She picks up her "news" based on info that's available just by Googling. She's shameless. But clever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Instead of just deleting her solicitation e-mails, click on SPAM instead. You'll never get them again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexy Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 I'm actually fascinated by her very skillful self-promotion. And it only takes a few seconds to scan her emails and delete. (OK, maybe I should get a hobby ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 I did "unsuscribe", but the emails keep on coming in my "spam". You gotta give her credit for persistence!!🙃 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luisa Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Apparently, every time she changes address, or name (recently married) the whole legal process needs to start over. I keep waiting for her to be kicked out of Mexico or sent to prison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyPanda Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 I doubt that clicking on "unsubscribe" does anything in her case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanson Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Gosh, I used to get all of Lisa's spam, but darn it, not any more. I found much of she wrote to be terribly entertaining and of course, ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vetteforron Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 My problem is she visited my Nursing home many years back and one of my famous residents for an interview. After I asked to read what she wrote and was told I had to subscribe. I have had many people visit my nursing home and never had not one to tell I could not read or view my interview. Oh well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stream Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 You could call or email the reporters and websites and tell them they have a great sales person they could use......or something else. Maybe if she reads a reporters news story of what she is doing it might dawn on her to stop. I'm sure the groups don't want people thinking they would be charged.

happyjillin Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 I have actually met that piece of work and was witness to some of her stupidity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 The emails from her site started early this week and went to my SPAM folder. Each time, I tried to "unsubscribe", but they have kept coming anyway. About now, I'm wondering if there is a more effective way to shut her up. But WHAT??? Any suggestions?

Why are you looking at your SPAM folder? Just don't look and you won't be aggravated. That is why SPAM folders were created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then based on that you might as well not mark anything as SPAM and just have everything go to your inbox. Would save you a lot of time! Fortunately for most of us the SPAM designation saves a lot of time and annoyance.. That is why it was created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyPanda Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 The irony is you are telling people on another thread about barking dogs to stop telling the poster what to do instead of answering her question, and here you are telling the poster... what to do. And ending with a condescending note on top of that. My own Spam folder lights up when it has a new email, and I always check to make sure it's not a mistake. That's just life with email. Because it doesn't always work the way it should. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just quickly look it over, make sure there''s nothing legit there, and delete all. There's never more than half a dozen emails in there because I keep it cleared. I don't hardly ever get spams in my inbox, so I'm not sending things from there to the spam box. The vast majority of what appears in my spam box is shunted there by my email provider. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone else who I did not ask a question of chimed in do defend the person that I asked a question of. Sorry it offends you that I could possibly ask such a question But I am so happy you are following and remembering my posts {smile} and I promise I will not insult or attack you by using words like condescending {smile} As I believe you are welcome to your opinion. Now it seems many people check their spam box. I haven't in years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 I'm with Mudgirl here. I give my SPAM folder a quick look and usually delete forthwith. Takes seconds. I got suckered into checking out the Guad Reporter thing because of the title. I don't need instructions on how to use an email account......please.😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 In answer to your question, Mostly Lost, I check my SPAM box to see if there is anything legit which doesn't belong there. I don't expect the general screener to know everything. Besides, a few seconds wasted is not exactly a major deal to me.😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 Mostlylost is on a roll lately. Interestingly enough, my Gmail Spam folder rarely has any spam in it that I didn't direct there, BUT my Trash folder is packed full of unread spam emails that Gmail is putting there on my behalf.... 5-10 an hour sometimes!

lakeside7 Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 She seems to have lots of energy, which most folks hereabouts do not..copy and paste seems to be the norm for many National Tabloids...join the club or just ignore and she may go away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
