I have been had. I am furious, but that’s nothing next to what I am fully expecting to receive from friends, family, and professional colleagues. ARRRGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Please disregard any invitation from Quechup – from me or anyone else.

I was invited to this networking site by a friend. You can see on the right-hand menu that I am involved in lots of online social sites.

I joined up, but they somehow hijacked my emails’ address book. I was shocked to receive a couple of out-of-office auto-replies.

I did _not_ request for invitations to be sent, or for my email addressbook to be accessed!

I have deleted my own membership, and my friend has also deleted her account.

If you receive an invitation to join, I advise you to delete the email. I am researching to find out how I might pursue a formal complaint.

I am deeply sorry for the breach and any inconvenience. My sincere apologies.
