This cow has got some nerve!

I am a retired provider with stellar reviews on TER and Troothsayerz out of California. I don't go around sending out unwanted emails to people I don't know, I don't down other providers unless they have somehow wronged me in any way. However today, I opened my email to find this nasty message from a provider I have never met, nor had any exchanges with, so you can tell me if you think her tactics are ethical and will get her business?

"fellow provider.. I also buld sites. Not being critacal but yours is out of wack. Maybe I can help fix it if you don't know how.
tia"

My response:

"Fellow provider? Well I am retired now and I allowed the domain URL to expire so it doesn't make any difference. And for you to go the extra mile to criticize the site shows that your whole personality is whack! You might also want to go back to school to learn how to spell correctly, it might help you learn how to write emails that aren't whack also.... just a suggestion!"

I have never posted anything like this on this site or any other site I have been a member and this is the first time I have ever had someone contact me in this manner. I could have just let it go, but seriously, this chick is painting herself in a dishonest light, from what I can see, and doing her best to cut down other providers that she doesn't even know.

So I put this to you, the public, to ask you if any of you would want to waste your time with someone who is so condescending toward other providers?

I would have told her I wasn't interested in dumbing down my site. Anyone who can't even spell build and refers to a site as "whack" would obviously be a bad business move.
Actually I wouldn't even waste my time replying.
I wouldn't let it bother me as she probably didn't even look at your site, mass emailing I'm sure.

I am interested in what the site she builds looks like with with the spelling and grammar! I'm sure it would be a masterpiece.

I wouldn't even have bothered responding, who gives a shit what this person might think.
Not the best way to give a 1st impression. Glad to hear about your successfull retirement from the hobby.
Why feed into the negative energy? I would either delete or simply say "no thank you", then move on.
Not a big deal if you ask me. I wouldn't even have dignified whoever that was with a response... Doesn't seem like their intention was to offer advice, rather just insult you and get a reaction.
Nature, you have every right to vent and thats what women do. Plus, it puts closure on a subject that she may try differently down the road. Some ppl need to be taught a lesson or they will never learn. Chica has taugh me alot. lol
You never know unless you say something. Subtle hints might not get across to some ppl when they take your politeness as a weakness. YOU GO GIRL. just saying.

There are many folks out there, *fishing* for money & for personal info and gain control of ladies websites. So guys pretend to be providers and will send out *spam* emails all the time. They figure they can insult ladies in just the right way about their photos & site, and some of those naive ladies respond, and say,* hey your right. Want to do my site & take photos for me*?
And bam, those guys posing as providers, now have their hand in the til and in possession & control of your site and photos. It happens all the time. Too many countless Eccie men to name, that are guilty of it.

So just blow the email off as nothing more than spam.

As there's no need to call another woman a *cow*. As that itself is insulting.
