I'm a navy wife. I received an email from a woman claiming to be my husband's online girlfriend. I knew it was fake as soon as I read it as it made conflicting statements such as "I never met him in person." "We just hang out in his SUV." She talked about finding me through my linked ebay and craigslist accounts. I knew immediately it was another navy wife I had made friends with in the last month. She was the only person who I told I linked my ebay and craigslist information. Our husbands do not get along and often butt heads at work. So I think her husband put her up to it. I knew that she would deny it if I confronted her. So my husband and I agreed to pretend and spread the rumor that we found out who did it so as to let the fear of getting caught eat them alive. I posted on my Facebook, "your practical joke didn't work. My marriage is too strong." Followed a day later by "With some technology I confirmed my suspicions and I know who did it. It's not worth calling you out on, but I'm here if you want to talk." I didn't really know for sure, but the guilt gave them away. One example is that, the day I posted that her husband banged his head every time (once to point of bleeding) when my husband was nearby. They never admitted it but made it blatantly obvious that they did it. In the meantime we reported to the military and provided copies of the 'girlfriend's letter' stating she had private photos and such. Apparently, a similar situation had happened to at least 1 other couple stationed here. My husband and I shut down our Facebook and other accounts to prevent further incidents. We told the military we knew who it was and didn't feel it necessary to go as far as start an investigation. That was the one and only email from my "husband's girlfriend". Claiming to know who did it stopped the problem. Or that's what I thought. My brother called me yesterday and told me he checked some old emails on Facebook. Within a day or 2 of the original email that I received, one was sent to him. It was the same email copied and pasted and asked if he was my brother.
At first it seemed like a personal vendetta and didn't seem like it was worth being bothered with. However, the more that unfolds the sicker this couple seems. I was appalled to find out there's 1 or maybe more couples they've done this to. It's wrong to mess with people's marriages. Now to find out they went so far as to pull information of my Facebook page and start contacting my family is really disgusting to me. I don't want my family thinking my husband is a cheating. Then there is the questions of who else was contacted from my Fb pages, what other information was pulled from my accounts, and is this really over or will there be more? When I thought it was a simple act of immaturity, I tried to take the higher road and not start an investigation. This couple has small children and his military career is their sole support so they stand to lose a lot in this. But the more I find out the more sick this act seems. Should I go through and open and investigation with NCIS?
