Anybody else sick of the friend requests that just has the link to the pirated books? It's all books I would read, too, so someone is doing their homework. I'm getting SOOO many and it's driving me batty. Do something about it, GR!

Sharon Cox I also get friend requests from people who have no books listed on their profile and don't speak English. For some reason I don't accept the requests.

Yeah, no books is a big one for me, too.

They aren't showing up in my actual friend requests on FB. I only get the emails and there's no way to flag those. I'm currently communicating with Support. I've had between 20 and 30 requests in less than 2 weeks.

⚣Michaelle⚣ I got almost 50 of those until I changed my settings to require a ONE WORD answer to a challenge question (and check that option to limit the response to the correct answer only); put the answer in my profile (right under where the Friend/Follow button is) and haven't gotten a single one. This was a suggestion in the GR feedback group and worked like a charm; none from the spammers but did get a couple of group member friend requests, so it really does work.

Good to know! Thank you! I'm not getting as many anymore, but I was close to 50, too.
