... and you got me. I had signed up a looong time ago, but never used it. Just had forgotten that I signed up. And suddenly, in my mailbox, I see a whole BUNCH of people adding me as friends (with you as the first one)... people I know as well as people I don't know (with fishing related avatars). I suspected something "auto" was behind it and deleted the account. To me it was a good thing though. A crap thing I signed up to, never used and forgotten about. It became a reminder that I had forgotten to unregister. But you should know, that before the unknown dudes started to drop in and I deleted the account, I had accepted your invitation to become a friend... LOL

Yeah, they got me Wes.........and before i realized what the deal was/is.......i had almost signed up..............then i saw how they want to get money out of you, so i squashed it. But, they still got my address list.............no biggie though...............just "Mark" them as a Phishing Scam........and send all their emails to your "Junk" box.............then you can delete them all with one click. Well, two actually.....one to mark them all as to be deleted, and one to actually delte them. mark > Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2009 19:53:13 -0700 > Subject: [VFB] Spam Warning > From: w...@wadaworks.com > To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com > > > Hi VFB, > > Wanted to alert you all that the Tagged.com is sending out bogus > "invitation to become friends" from various VFB members to others in > their address books. > > The invitations seem to come from trusted friends, and encourage you > to sign up to view photos the sender supposedly is trying to send to > you. > > The Tagged system harvests email addresses from your address book, and > sends those addresses "invitations to become friends".
