Why expose yourself, when you could expose your friends?

[denny]

From a friend's inbox:

I understand that you are currently involved in the Lifestyle known as BDSM and have numerous active contacts within this community.

The Daily Mail are compiling an expose on the people who practice this lifestyle within this community and use the website known as WWW.informedconsent.co.uk

You have been put forward as an unnamed source within an advising capacity to this story.

Anyone who co operates will be protected against exposure as we will take care of all sources.

You may contact news desk via Philip A Farmer on [a phone number] alternatively foward your response to [an email address]

Sincerely
Philip A Farmer

It'd be nice to believe that nobody would be crap enough to take them up on this lovely offer, but unfortunately I'm sure they'll get their info from someone.


Update: contact details obfuscated

Update2: apparently IC is suffering a bit of a hoax email attack around it at present, so this should probably be viewed with some suspicion. The person I got it from did tell me that they'd checked the headers, but they've subsequently taken down their own blog post on the subject.
