How to know the harassing email you've received is from Noel Bednaz


  1. It says it's not from Noel Bednaz.

  2. The headers show that the email originates from an IP address where the first two octets are 71 or 72, ie, 71.x.x.x., and it traces back to Verizon.

  3. It is sent through a fake email program. Her current one is in the Czech Republic and has a .cz extension.

  4. The body is comprised of extremely poor grammar and occasional misspellings.

  5. Numbers are usually in numeric form (1,2) rather than spelled out.

  6. Random capitalization of words (usually profanities) for emphasis.

  7. Overuse of exclamation points (!!!!)

  8. Grandiose statements: "I'm going to bury...", The hammer is coming down," I'm going to kill myself..."

  9. No acceptance of personal responsibility. Everything is always someone else's fault.

  10. Run-on sentences.

  11. Scattered thoughts - the subject matter is all over the place.

  12. The email appears to have come from your own email address, or a comically fake address.



Three or more of the above.... it's Noel. Call an exterminator, you have an infestation.
