    The rule of thumb is, if you don't know the person don't friend them. My local police department made a phony account and tried to friend all of the kids they wanted to keep tabs on. We caught on quickly when we saw a pattern in the sample of people they were requesting. I'm a small town boy.


    Oh my gosh! I know I was stupid. Wow.

    Nice to know the Police are more Facebook literate than I am! :D

    You aren't the first nor will you be the last to be social networked. A good habit would be this: when you get a friend request immediately go to their FB profile. Likely you can only see what I mentioned above. If they have absolutely no other friends and no friends in common then beware!


    Can't give you a thumbs up - so here's a pretend thumbs up. Thank you for the info. I didn't understand how any of this worked.

    Kind of you to take the time. I owe you.

    Could this be the same person who stole your identity while you were on your honeymoon?

    Well, you hit that on the head. Yes, I found out who it is/was. I'm sick to my stomach and, yes, it's the same person... and someone I know.

    I am rocked to my socks.

    Enough said but I have been betrayed (and feel violated) and, no, not by my husband.

    I hope the person can be arrested for cyber stalking and that FaceBook is cooperating to the fullest. I hate seeing crap happen to good people.
    If there is anything I can do let me know.

    Thanks - a cyberhug would help. I'm just shattered.

    {HUGS} As you know there are idiots everywhere. But you don't need that kind of junk in your life. Nobody does. Again if there is any help or research I can do just keep me posted.

    Some people really have nothing better to do than put others down :(

    I believe in Karma, they will get theirs.
