Great! Welcome!

[Elin]

Wow, fabulous progress, Mary! Welcome and best of luck with your writing goal :)

[Elin]

Oh my, I meant reading goal, Mary. Sorry, my mind is one tracked, lol.

[Debbie]

Hey, Mary!

We're happy you discovered us! Welcome aboard!

Does anyone else get spam email from goodreads that look like its a comment to one of you reviews or something, but when you click on the link it takes you to a fake amazon listing (for example)???
Or a friend request that does the same thing?

Alas, yes.

[Sam]

I wonder that goodreads doesn't have a way of stopping that from happening. Assuming its a bot of some kind

[Elin]

I get them too, Sam.

[J. W.]

Yeah, me too.

[Sophia]

I flag them and GR makes them disappear after a day or two. And, I get fake friend request that lead to something not half as innocent as Amazon. Ugh!

[Sam]

How can I flag them on GR? I searched the help query but nothing like this came up

At the bottom right of each comment after it is posted is the option to 'reply', 'delete', or 'flag'. Click 'flag' to let GR know you want them to investigate and treat comment as spam.

thanks!
