Can't Believe I Did This

Glad nobody was around the other day, except my wife.

I went to log into my new website and every time I tried it took me to the Wealthy Affiliate sign up page. After about 10 tries I screen shot it and sent it to site support. They told me everything was fine on their end.

I went into the crome browser and deleted my history and cookies. Tried it again and went right to my wordpress dashboard on my new site. I worked on that site for awhile and then decided to go back to my rifle scope site.

I opened the login page and clicked on the box and two or three email addresses popped up and I clicked on the first one and logged in. First thing I noticed was that over on the chat side it said I needed to upgrade to premium to use the chat.

First thought was, I am premium, why did they kick me out? Then I looked at my profile picture and it was the same picture that I use on one of my facebook pages. It said new member and a few followers.

Ok, now I am getting upset. I screen shot the account and sent it to Kyle. Some joker is using my email address and a picture from my facebook page to set up an account. I logged out and looked at my password list and logged in with the email address that I was suposed to and it went straight to my account.

Now I am more then upset, I'm getting mad,. Who in the crap does this guy think he is. Well I've got his log in info I'll just go back and look around. I went in and looked and thought, ok, I'm in his account I'll look at the rest of his info.

I hollered at my wife to come and look. This xxxxx is using my email, my name and my address. I've had enough of this xxxxxxxxx. Time to figure out who this jerk is. I looked around and saw that he had a private message.

I clicked on the little envelope up there and it was a private message from Kyle.

Finally after quite a few cuss words and name calling I figured it out. The private message from Kyle was 2 years old. My old account is still open and I had been calling myself every name in the book.

Oh well, I guess everyone has a senior moment once in a while. Was a little embarrasing when I had to tell my wife who the guy was and then message Kyle back and tell him to never mind, it was my mistake.

Have a good night or day or whatever it is in your location. Talk at ya later.
