I got this fan mail today which came as a bit of a surprise to me as I don't have any serious articles published on cars, (only my one taking the mickey out of Volvo drivers). I wondered if anyone else had received the same fan mail. I deleted this fan mail because I felt it was not genuine.

hey--I love the content you have up on cars. I've been scouring the internet for good information on automobiles, and some of the best has come from you and other hubpages users. A friend I made through another site is running a neat survey and he's asked me to try to get others to take it. If you and other readers could take a few minutes, it'd be greatly appreciated. http://bit.ly / 7Efofw

I've received one like this on other sites where I write. Some writer thinks this is a great way to drive people to their site. Although I am all for helping people, this kind of thing makes me crazy.
Dump it.
That IS spam. I had one a while back that said I was among the top two hundred hubbers and they voted for me or something...there was a link to some bogus thing, that was SPAM, too! Still, you don't get spammed to death because of hubpages, just one once in a very LONG while. Delete and go on and don't worry.
All deleted thankfully, but kind of a daft person posting SPAM like this, as they didn't even bother to see if I actually had written any hubs on cars..... duh!!!

I started with hubpages a few days ago, and started following people that I admired, and whose writing I enjoyed. It asked me if I wanted to write fan mail, but I thought I would wait until I got to know them a bit better. Now, looking at the profile pages, I don't see anywhere where you can post...

I'm reading an awful lot about Hubpages at the moment and while a lot of it is going in, not everything is and I'm certainly not very good at being able to reference back to where I read it. Frankly it's all very new!One thing which concerns me is fan mail. I've got a vague recollection of reading...
