September, if someone is sincere and wants to make a connection; doesn't it sound strange to you they PM you only asking for your e-mail address which is not part of where they've just joined, is not posted? Why not make the connection in PM or give their own email address and ask you to email them? Especially a new person giving no information whatsoever about themselves. I don't see how anyone can even "think" such a person might be "sincere". No hallmarks there of sincere:

Sincerity is the virtue of speaking truly about one's feelings, thoughts, desires. Sincere expression carries risks to the speaker, since the ordinary screens used in everyday life are opened to the outside world.
