Promoting a novel? Watch out for phishers.
Hello All:
I’m at Day 10 with the Virtual Book Tour, but I’d like to mention something that happened while I was promoting The Wildcat’s Victory on Facebook. I originally thought I had received a reply from a child or young person, and replied gently with that in mind – but after I received a reply I began to think someone was hitting me up for identity theft.
Tell me what you think – I posted more detail on my blog today (March 14th) at http://thewildcatsvictory.wordpress.com Please excuse the link instead of a full report here – I’m hurrying to get this out to as many sites as possible. If anyone is interested in learning more I’ll pore through the emails and Facebook messages to post the original message and what I sent. I thought I might be overly suspicious, but I've already had writers reply that I have solid grounds for it.
Chris.
I went to your blog and, sorry, I do not have time to read your many posts in order to locate what happened with Facebook. I also did a search for the word Facebook and turned up nothing. What exactly happened?
