Sounds good until dozens of people around the world all use it as their email too. So many receipts and job applications. I have enough documents for an Australian with the same name as me, I could easily steal their identity. A 12 year old in England set up an Instagram with my email and I ended up with access to their full account. Also had some fun the time I was included in a maga family email chain.

    One of my impostors signed up for adult friend finder and tinder using my address. Try explaining that to the wife. I also get important mortgage documents, consulting invoices, family gathering plans, you name it. The ones in Austin TX and London are especially egregious.

    hah ! that's funny as hell.
    There's a guy carrying my name, he works as something of an art dealer, don't know the specifics. I have been included in many conversations. The price some paintings go for is... surprising. Oh and one of the same bunch also runs a christian scouting club or something.
