JFC, is anyone else getting repeatedly spammed by a phishing friend request with links to (supposedly) download books - free...which would be piracy?

Tamara what


message 2: by Teal (new)

Teal I got two of them earlier today, & flagged them both.


message 3: by Mel (new)

Mel I had one in my inbox as well, but now it's gone. I guess the flagging helped...


⚣Michaelle⚣ @Tamara: Yep, just like that. I've gotten 5 today alone. I ignored the first two, thinking it was just weird...then when I got the next one I flagged it...then flagged the next two as well.

Shin Mon Thway I got one of them and I blocked immediately. I just wish there’s a report button here like FB so I can report those bastards.


message 6: by Annika (new)

Annika Yep, one yesterday and a new one this morning....

There is a report button. It's called "flag," and you'll see it in the lower right-hand corner of the friend request. I strongly encourage you to use it -- it seems to work, as the 2 requests I received disappeared a couple of hours after I flagged them.


message 8: by Alisa (new)

Alisa Yes, I get one a day. I didn't know about the flagging. Thx


⚣Michaelle⚣ Aaaaaaand they're still coming. This is at least the 10th day in a row that I've gotten at least one of these stupid requests.


message 10: by Gerbera_Reads (new)

Gerbera_Reads I got my first one today

⚣Michaelle⚣ I wonder if there is some way that GR can kick out any friend request sent with a link - or at least a link with to that site (as it's where they are all pointing to)?


message 12: by Barbara➰ (new)

Barbara➰ YES! I've had multiple ones this week. It's annoying as fuck!


message 14: by Renegade ♥ (new)

Renegade ♥ Yup.

And now they're sending friend requests with their pirated books spam and then deleting the request. Bloody annoying...


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

I’ve had over 20 so far. I’ve flagged them, ignored them and told GR. But they just keep on coming...😡🤬😡🤬
