Before accepting invitations within Yahoo! 360 I try to do my background checking. For some reason, this one slipped through. I received an invite from "CARAMEL_KISSES", her named sparked some investigative work, so I checked our her profile page but it looked fairly clean. So I decided to hit that "accept" invitation button. Then when viewing my home page, where it syndicates all the new items for my connected friends, I saw some porn news feeds coming in. So I immediately removed CARAMEL_KISSES from my friends list.
You won't see those feeds on her profile page, unless you are a connected friend (I assume). I forgot to take screen shots of the feeds, so I have no evidence now. But trust me, the URL of the feeds was from world-se*-news.com (put a * there so a stop filter wouldn't trigger on the ads). I have also reported her to Yahoo! 360, just now. Nice spam tactic, if that was what was intended.

What's wrong with adult content on 360, Barry? Or was it just the spam you were upset with?

When I clicked over to read one of the feeds, the images on the site was something I don't think some parents would want their kids to see. Maybe its just me, I am a bit conservative. Point is, CARAMEL_KISSES can send an invite to you, me, a child, etc. and then this content is available to them.
