I just received an email from a punter from his office account
Being curious I googled
The website says the company is owned by him & his wife & they work together
it takes 2 minutes to set up a free account; so much more hassle to have a divorce

Guys get a free email & a PAYG SIM card for punting use; it's easy & stops a world of pain

next up don't use your wife as a reference

This is great advice. I have seen several situations where providers sent out e-mails to their e-mail list and forgot to use BCC (an easy mistake to make if you aren't paying attention), which means that *everyone* could see everyone else's e-mail addresses. It was shocking to see how many people used e-mail addresses with their real names and work locations.

Agencies. You covered providers and clients however IMO
a greater risk may be with agencies. They may store your info.
Agencies must be diligent to always delete client info from
thier computers in case they are raided or pressured to
turn over hardware to LE.

esp when your boss has a re-election bid in a few months?

I don't have a problem telling a provider where I work if I feel comfortable, but as far as putting that in an email or via any kind of electronic medium...no way.

If a girl requires that, I require her to call me and we can discuss that on the phone.  If the girl wants all this information but won't even call me, then there is no session.

I am happy to deal with screening, but let's just not be stupid.  All the company IT guy or compliance officer has to do is google the email address, and they will know you are into something that is better kept under wraps.
