Spotted : Facebook Bullies

I had to post this as i find it shocking that facebook allows these "spotted" type pages.

The other week i noticed a fair few of my Facebook friends liking these particular pages, most appeared to quickly unlike but  i had a look...Well you have to right? (Yeah yeah I'm a nosy moo) Anyway i was shocked to say the least that these pages are allowed on Facebook. It seems like it is just a place where anonymous bullies..or cowards as i like to call them, Rip into people, the language is usually foul and they give so much info out about a person that they are picking on. I am shocked the comments and pages are allowed to stay.  Then you have the desperate Doris type that go something like "who is that girl/boy who works at such and such a place, i'd give him one" ...Well you get the idea.

Sometimes i really hate technology and i especially hate the way bullying seems to be more and more accepted when it's being conducted online and on social media sites.

There you have it - My whinge for the day.

Simon Gray- Country Music Lovers- Holly Ann

Just a quick post to big up Simon Gray's new song called Holly Ann. I am a big fan of country music, and i just love Simon Gray's latest song which is getting plenty of radio time on The Ride 94.1 out of Globe AZ.
I also had a listen of some of his other songs and i caved and purchased Big Door Open on amazon and thoroughly recommend you give that a listen. Big Door Open It's having a lot of playing time on my Ipod at the moment.

Anyway, for those keen to have a listen to his music themselves. His website is here Simon Gray and his facebook is here Simon Gray fan page

He is a lovely man with a great music style. To me he is a mix between Loudon Wainwright III and Warren Zevon which is a total winner in my book.

Use facebook? Have you been hacked without your knowledge?

I am so cross and upset. Some arse has managed to hack into my Facebook account, add what seems to be both a MasterCard and a visa card and spend a fortune on a texas holdem game app since December without me even realizing.

I don't own a Mastercard and the Visa card that has been used isn't mine!. Facebook is totally useless and provides no direct way to contact them even though i did go round in circles and manage to email them last night by selecting options that were probably irrelevant to me but should of (if it was a decent company) given me a response.


Yesterday i contacted MasterCard who told me to get a credit report, that will take 5 days for me to receive the pin. I also contacted the police today and tried my best to explain the situation to them and now it seems it's a waiting game to see if i get a response from Facebook or find out someone has committed identity fraud against me. Argh. So Friday 13th was unlucky for me.


This post is to warn others. I wouldn't of known about any of this if it wasn't for this message that greeted me when i was forced to log back into facebook.




I advise everyone to check that this isn't happening to you.
Go to the arrow next to the home tab at the top of your screen on the right hand side.
Go to Account Settings at the top of your screen.
On the left hand side it should be like the screenshot shown below.
Click on payments and then Credits purchase history to make sure nobody has been using your account without your knowledge and adding mystery cards to your account.
Please remember to check on a regular basis.
