Received a friend request yesterday.

So I looked at this person’s profile.
Something seemed odd.
But we had 103 friends in common.
So I accepted.

When I checked Facebook this morning…
this person had posted several long winded responses to my posts, and sent me a direct message saying how wrong I was and listed about 15 resources from what looked like conspiracy sites.

I immediately unfriended and blocked the person.

Moral of the story: It doesn’t matter how many friends in common you have…if your gut is telling you something is odd about a friend request, listen to it. Don’t accept.
