Not me.
After watching a consumer TV programme called Watchdog (which regularly airs in Britain), where they fraudulently opened a bank account & obtained credit, just by using the details that somebody had provided on Facebook, I decided, no thankyou.

I'm on there.
Regarding the Watchdog piece, if you put your DoB, address, e-mail address and phone number on there and make it open to public viewing you deserve to be done.
There's also a BoxRec group.

It's more addictive than crack. Most of the boxers tend to not add you to their friends, but good luck.
David Haye does once you've met him. Have tried adding Eubank, but can't tell if it's the real one.

Be careful with it guys..... These panorama style programmes are important to highlight, but can also make people paranoid.
This week I and my "real life" friends have had threats of police action cause I have been chatting to an 25+ year old lass on it for 3/4 months. She only lives down the road from me, but nothing was ever going to happen.... the topics were never sexual in nature - but her fella found out. She works in a public place, but I have never seeked her out - yet I am some obessive stalker, paedo, sex pest (yes, he sounds like an intelligent man who knows the meanings of all these terms)
I did give my phone number via an email when she was feeling low and said she couldn't be online for a while. She stored my number - obviously he nicked her phone.
Now we aint speaking, and we are both a bit gutted about it. Might sound soppy but she had a great sense of humour, but was deeply troubled (now I know why) and I feel a bit helpless.

Sorry to hear that stu.
Off topic, last year there was an outcry by some Mary Whitehouse style group asking to ban myspace and facebook because people were unfaithful on it. Therefore, if people are unhappy in their relationship, it's because of facebook and myspace.

msyapce etc are marriage/relationship breakers..one of my friends experienced issues due to being irresponsible. She met up with a guy and went clubbing with him one weekend (not too long ago), and ended up in a hotel with him..rest is up to your imagination. She is dating a cool guy, but he's not into the clubbing scene aas much, so she got chatty with a good looking fella on myspace and the rest in history..
should i tell her boyfriend the case??

Tom , sorry to go O/T for a sec but in your article you stated Adnan Amar is looking to box for the English belt in the next 12 months.......i understood he would box MH in March.....or is that just purse bids?

The purse bids are in Feb for the fight to take place in May. Adnan isn't counting his chickens about the fight, however, as he thinks Hatton will probably pull out.
