Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Somehow I get a fair number of people signing up for shit using my email address. A lot of the time these are services that send you daily notifications when you use it (like my fitness pal), I usually just go in and change the password and it ends not long after that. Other than one particular case, I have no idea who the hell these people are, but they probably share a first name, middle initial and last name with me, maybe (though some people can't seem to fucking type either, and middle initials near mine on the keyboard seem to come my way from time to time)  

A while back I reached out to one person I knew kept putting the wrong email address because I received the equivalent of their W-2, and I actually knew who that person was because they were slightly famous in their profession and lived in a different country, and the W-2 info was clearly for them.  

But now, I'm just sick of this shit, I just go in and change passwords. It seems to happen 6-10 a year.
