How ironic to find such an obvious example on an article about spam.

FB refused to help me. Their customer support is virtually nonexistent. <br /><br />After that I was cautious about allowing 3rd party apps have access to my FB acct, such as Branchout, Birthday calendars, etc. Since then, I have had no problems. I still have friends who get viruses and sometimes they tag me, but as long as I don't click on those links and untag myself and report it as spam, I've had no problem.

They don't bother me as much on Twitter since the culture is like that over there, but I do get annoyed on FB, Google+ or emails.

I was MORTIFIED. It happened two or three times, even after I changed every single setting and beefed up my security. I staretd a new FB and go hit again, then sadly, had to unfriend the people from who the virus originated. But I knew they were in the same boat. <br />I'm keeping my number s very low in order to weed out the accounts that had the same issues. It seems as long as I don''t allow certain people access, I'm fine. But it's pathetic, because they didn't do it, some idiot did it!Jennifer Majorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12696261499182486196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443765296489868573.post-69595328047824768112013-01-18T11:10:12.942-05:002013-01-18T11:10:12.942-05:00I don't mind folks telling me about a book, an...I don't mind folks telling me about a book, an event, a happy-dance experience. I like to hear about things, and I like to be able to do the same. I do mind being bombarded with 50 messages an hour from one person on anything. This seems to happen more on Twitter. Instead of getting the extra exposure that person probably expects, those messages get ignored at least by me. I scroll through 50 posts from one person to the one posts from individuals who inform me of something a couple of times a day or maybe even a couple of times a week. I figure if they post, they have something new to say. But that's just me. I'm brand new to Twitter, and the pages and pages of tweets can get overwhelming, no more than I'm following (so far), and I don't have that kind of time. I suspect few of us do. Thanks for reminding us to be considerate. Sometimes, especially when you are new, if others do it, you might think it's expected, and you do it "to fit in." But not everything needs to be emulated.Sylvia A. Nashhttp://www.sylviaanash.com/blog/noreply@blogger.com
