FB and twitter need to be given an email address they cannot get mine just by a member looking for who is online.

I agree about the bogus web sites, the best way to get to a web site you want is to physically type into the address bar the full address of the site you want do not really on fav pages and links, never click on links.

It is not for who is online, but who is on Facebook/Twitter, they ask to copy your addy book.

If you had been on either you would know what I mean, it is not giving out an individual email address.   Any invitation to join Facebook/Twitter is automatically sent to all those shown in your address book if you grant this permission.

However you (the member of FB/Twit) get emails asking you if you know so and so.

Perhaps a user of these sites can clarify how it works, I am not a member of either anymore, but did try them.

I checked your profile Isuzuswag, and your e-mail address is shown. Might be better to delete that. People can still send you a private message on the forum site.




Will do. Thank you

I have been a Facebook user for years and never had a problem....

There are quite a few Motorhome/Caravaner Facebook sites mostly with great information... The problem with spam email does not come from there but rather as stated very early in this discussion, the fact that my email address is on display on my personal details. I have now fixed that.

Thank you one and all!!
