I mean sure, there are scammer phishing everywhere and as I told you in private even at my company an admin almost Got scammed for $500 in Amazon cards by someone posing as her boss, but they contacted us (the it dpt) and we saved them.
So some basic internet 101 rules are :
Dont email people you don’t know, don’t respond to emails you don’t know, don’t pick up the phone if it’s an unknown number, don’t give anything private to anyone posing as an authority figure such as police, banks, hospitals insurance companies etc.

As already has been posted by multiple users, each post in this thread has the proper time/date stamp. Clearly the issue is on your end, not the site. There is absolutely no evidence (other than your "gut feeling") that there is anything amiss with either of these users.
As I told you in private message, Becca12 has not posted publicly here since 2020 so unless you have been messaging her privately [and I would have serious questions about why a 70 year old man (according to the information you provided to the site) is private messaging with a 21 year old female] there is no way you were almost scammed by her.

Is it possible someone used her info? I don't recall exactly how I replied to her post early morning of 4 oct 2022. i was very tired & possibly saw post in New Members??? Bottom line is that I received email from that supposed post. As I said I am not savvy and it seems that becca12 is used as a ploy and why is Lizzie responding to a dead post if Lizzie is legit?

Nothing happened to me but thru that post I went off line and via ???? spoke with some supposed young girl and she sent a picture that was supposedly her giving a talk at school and a picture of her possibly with a wiener dog all seemingly nice and when I reported this to the FBI here in Chicago they said it was nothing that they would investigate as i thought I was being set up. But they have the report. So today when I came to this thread for the first time and see same becca12 and then Liizzie reply to becca 12 some thing funny not ha ha funny but phishy funny
I mean sure, that’s a possibility. I remember prank calls when I was a kid and before Verizon had the Star69 on their systems for reverse tracking. I mean Steve Jobs pranked called The Pope.
You may also need some internet awareness too about things to watch for or red flags. In our company we do mandatory training for our users every 6 months so they don’t get scammed from phone calls or emails.
