The Danger of Adding Friends on Facebook

The Danger of Adding Friends on Facebook, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

This is a very serious matter , and it has happened to me can happen to anyone of you..

I get requests for adding a friend at Facebook, I add them as sometimes they are among mutual friends list, I have no qualms, as I always thought there was more transparency on Facebook..words and an opinion that I take back completely.

I think Fickr has the best format of adding a friend, more control more information, and through the persons choice of groups you know exactly what kind of contact you are adding it is your headache after that..at Flickr I dont add people without a profile or an avatar, I dont add people into porn or semi porn groups..or religious mindset of hate..even if he is from my community or faith.

I got conned at Facebook, the culprit also from Bandra where I live ,who threatened to send underworld goons to my house implicate me in a false police case , get me beaten by the cops,, had added most of mutual friends including my daughter ..and a very close friends nephew in Dubai too..

I wonder his parents know about his activities on Facebook, and I hope Facebook authorities take serious action of his threats against me I have reported this incident to Facebook authorities enclosing his threatening message to me, , I have followed this matter in the right direction also..and taken recourse for my safety and that of my immediate family..if anything happens to me you know who is responsible - he is on my block list at Facebook..

I had actually eased out of Facebook nothing personal just a tiredness of mind and blogging spirit.. , only my tweets are connected to Facebook through Flickr Twitter blogs.

I have never denigrated any community .intentionally or intentionally , and because of peoples bias towards my religion, my culture , and the non stop outpouring of hate comments I blocked the comment box . totally disabled at Flickr.

I was fed up of blocking racists , bigots , puritans with the agenda of poison, and promoting sectarian strife..I shoot pictures read me as a photo blogger and a pedestrian poet only.

I have no other problems with comments elsewhere as I have enabled Comment Moderation...


PS
I posted a link on the veiled hijra ..a poem that talks of the hijra and his life as a prostitute , and the need of his to hide his identity from my camera with the end of his saree ..so obviously veil is not a Hijab or a Muslim garment in this context.. and this bloke at Facebook gives such an ugly twist to my link.. I sent him a message and blocked him..

He sent me a response almost a threat to my life, including implicating me in a false police case , I reported him and his message to Facebook authorities , nor have I deleted his message or his ugly comment..
