Ugh....
I'm usually pretty good when it comes to the online spammers and scammers, however yesterday I fell for one - now I have to hope I removed this individual before anyone else in my own contact/friends list gets connected to "her".
On Twitter, I've come to recognize the porn spambots and other fake followers, but the one I decided to "friend" yesterday was wilier than most. We had a couple of mutual friends in common, and both of those folks are people I trust. But they must have had the same experience, seeing familiar names in the spammer's connections.
Well, as soon as I did connect, the crap started to arrive in my in-box. I'm hoping I''ve unfriended properly, but Facebook doesn't make disconnecting easy - or at least leave you with great confidence you've removed someone...
Maybe I should connect her with all those e-mail savvy Nigerian princes that are always offering me their inheritances.
Later!

I am so glad I am "Facebook-less". This means I only ever had good friends :)
So true - but you may never (as I) enjoy the potential fortune of a Nigerian prince!!
