I don't know how this group/Haroun got my email address

Here is the message:

" world's largest introductions network


hi ahme...,

I just joined LoveHappens, a new site where people help people find love. I'd like the people on LoveHappens to get to know me better, so I'm hoping you'll write a quick story about me that I can add to my profile. It doesn't have to be long, but it may help me meet someone great.

Click here to write a few words about me.

thanks,

I am puzzeled with what I am supposed to do
to write about someone I have never had contact with before
and I have never entered that Link before either

I am afraid if I click on that Link
I might get into a Hacker's landmine

So, if someone in this Forum knows about websites like that one
kindly let me know his/her advice

Am I right when I describe that request as "strange"?

My Suggestion : Ignore it, delete it ... thats what I would do :)

It seems that as the mailing (surface/air) lists are sold from a magazine to another, now I have doubts that email addresses could be on sale too!
I receive free technical publications at my office address (Petroleum Refinery) without making any contact with or writing an application form to subscribe to such magazines. I usually can tell which magazine I am already subscribing to did sell its mailing list, usually from the way my address or title show up on the label. Each magazine has a way of making abbreviation in my name/address/title. So, I try to locate which one match the newly received magazine.

Well, I used the search engine to find the websites of that "LoveHappens" then entered the home page
So, it is not a Hacker's trick
It is a website for people looking for lovers
I stopped at the homepage while still amazed from that request: to write about someone other than myself to promote his/her selling to the seeked lovers!
In my work, at times; I find a work peer, a senior manager, asking me to write a Letter to the Editor of Ahram on his behalf about an opinion / personal problem, simply because he/she is not as good as me in writing Letters to the Editor. My reply, write a draft and I will edit it and then send it for you with your name not mine.
Why? because I believe that No one can express about someone's else opinion/personal problem as the one who is occupied with it or living it.
usually, they drop their request.
I still remember 2 General Managers, each handed me an A3 paper about a personal matter, written with a typical administrative memo style, I at that time was a line manager (middle management) but dared to tell them: no way this thing get published, then escaped from rewriting a new version.

Thanks for the caring to provide feedback/advice.

I got the same email and to be honest I checked the site and found out that one of my friends from Friendster is a member there and so invited me too to join in.I made my profile there but have no time to check it from time to time.
