[RBS] Beware "Gary Levy" emails

[M.M. W]

Dear All,

It has come to the attention of the Beit Shemesh & Ramat Beit Shemesh list
moderators that someone by the name of "Gary Levy", (seemingly not his/her
real name) has been sending out confrontational, abusive and offensive
emails. The emails are in response to some post/er that seems to "tick
him/her off". There has also been a report of similar emails by poster "Jay
Cohen".

After a number of reports to moderators s/he was banned from the lists, but
continued reading the lists on the web and sending emails directly to
posters. We subsequently had the email address removed from one email
provider, but "Gary Levy" has now popped up on another provider.

Replying to the emails only escalates the abusive responses.

At this point there isn't much that can be done except to ignore the email
and/or report it as abuse/spam to the email provider; e.g. "Report Spam"
and/or abuse at .com.

Sincerely,
