    Agreed! Why take un-necessary risks? Especially on FB!

    This sounds like very good advice. Don't reply to something you are unsure of.

    If it's not Nato, and he is concerned, then I would be too. I would ignore this person. If its on the up and up, they will recontact you and tell you who they are. If they do not, then I would not offer any info at all. Things are just too weird out there anymore.

    delete, ignore and forget. if it is legit, they will contact you properly. esp. since hubby says he has no idea.

    I'm almost positive now that it is my sister-in-law. She has me for our family's Secret Santa.

    i asked her if she remembered who she had & she commented, "I have you, I have a special plan for you. "

    It does seem odd.

    Would there be any possible harm in providing make, model, cost, and where to purchase the quilt frame you want?

    With my kind of luck lately, I wouldn't reply. I would also delete this person. Sounds kind of spooky! How far will it go?

    My advice is....if you don't know this person, and the dates are as you described them...don't respond. Chances are that this person won't follow up...if it was me, and they DID follow up, I'm afraid they would be in for a surprise...capice?
    If you feel like you're special...it's 'cause you are!
