requesting to be added to my msgr

04-13-2008

Has anyone been getting alotta requests for you to add them to your msngr ?
I have been getting at least 2 a day from people i dont know . I have never
even gotten 1 before, and i have had msngr for years. Jonathan is there some
kind of list of windows live addys going around ? or somewhere people have
access to list of msgr addys ?

Thanks
Susie

Greetings Susie,

No list I've ever seen... However, you'd be surprised how often people can add you
accidently (typos, ignoring underscores, whatever). I have one account where people add me
all the time, most likely due to its simplicity. I have yet another account where I get
weird forwards from some person I don't even know (and yes, they're legitimate messages).

It's a bit like a wrong number, it just happens.

Hi

I've been getting these annoying emails too.
About 3 to 5 a week at present. From total strangers.
Just keep blocking them.

Cheers

Martin
