Hey Everyone ●‿●
I didn't know where else to post this, so here I am. This morning I logged onto my Twitter account and had a notification that this guy "John" had tweeted at me with an image attached, asking for my help. The image was a pic of a letter (partially from HubPages and partially to me, or any hubber...it was very general). Anyhoo, it's a scam, and I am afraid that he/they may be targeting other hubbers.
So, I did a screenshot of it, so you could see what it looks like, also below that is a screenshot of his account page. Just a friendly word of Warning, please stay away. I'm not going to respond to him. In fact, I'm going to see if I can delete the tweet as well as block him. His Twitter username is @johncalifornia8 (https://twitter.com/johncalifornia8/with_replies). In the preview of this message, I noticed it is hard to see the images detail. If you are unable to see what he sent me, he is saying he can't get his articles approve on Hubpages and wants to pay me to write articles for him.
I'm not a smart gal, but I do know what a scam is (◠‿◠✿) lol
**PS**
I just went to the tweets and replies section of his Twitter page; there are numerous, identical tweets to other Hubbers (◠︿◠✿)
I'm a little offended that he didn't tweet me. So I tweeted him

Just wondering what sites Hubbers use to promote their articles? I have seen a lot of changes over the years with some sites no longer allowing links in forums or comments, and some article sharing sites just going away. I primarily use Facebook and Twitter these days to share my...

I was wondering why don't we promote hubpages on another venue e.g. Twitter or any other website. We could join hands and create a big social circle; reporting in a few words the hubtivities that we are upto. This way, we will not only generate more traffic on our hubs and promote our beloved...

Well it looks like the Digg has stopped us to shout our submissions. In that case we will be using twitter Hub promotion. In such a case I request all Hubber to please let us know your twitter profile name here so that we all can be friends there as we are here and help each other.My profile name...

Are there any other hubbers besides me who does not have Facebook and don't want it?I don't mind sharing information, tips, and advice with others, but I think it's ridiculous to put all my personal and private business out on the web. Nor do I care to know all about other people's private affairs....

Hi all, for some reason I just got a notification that my Paypal account is limited and am no longer able to receive funds. I will call them to ask what the issue is (but from horror stories, they take ages to resolve), so in the meantime, I'd like to know what happens to my hub earnings — since...
