Hi Shalu,
Im glad you enjoyed the post
Sometimes we do get some fishy things on Twitter, and most of the time (at least in my case) it ends up being spam… which is so annoying. But Twitter attacks are most definitely real – you’re definitely right about that!
Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to leave your comment!
Indeed Melissa. Lets not forget Facebook as well. You will be surprised how many people you don’t know wants to become your friend. Later on then they will target you with ads.
Yes you’re right Shalu! I get quite annoyed with those spammers! But in these case, it’s best to ignore them and just move past the annoyances. Tuesday I will be posting another vlog post that talks all about responding to Facebook attacks!
Hope to see you here on Tuesday!
Enjoy your evening!
Sure I will Melissa. Thanks for that, will check it out for sure.
Looking forward to having you back!
