Watch out for FanIQ

Hi All,

I am John, and this is my first week of the keyboarding class.

I am posting this blog entry, because of a recent incident. I received an email from my sister that said, "Peggy W" has a private message for you. I clicked on the link, and I was directed to a page that ask me some questions. Anyway, I did not participate. I asked my sister what was the purpose of the email. She said her daughter sent her the email, and she answered the questions. She went on to explain that after she did that, the so call private message from "Peggy W" was automatically send to everybody in her yahoo email address book. She was quite embarrased, because the message was sent to her daugter's teacher, her accountant, old boyfriends that she no longer speaks to, and so forth.

The name of the site is http://www.faniq.com/.

In conclusion, if you get a private message linking you to http://www.faniq.com/ and answer the questions, all the people in your yahoo address book will get a message that, perhaps you may not want them to receive. Just be leary of answering any emails that have FanIQ logo.

John
