#3 Social Media Chat Rules Broken: Sending unsolicited and scam messages to individuals
Social Media Chat Rules are evolving, and some require that we respect the privacy of others.
Sending unsolicited messages to others on WhatsApp because you are in the same group is wrong.
Nearly 95% of users of Facebook and WhatsApp, break this rule. Sometimes, group members on WhatsApp spam you with Direct Messages (DM).
If it is not a scam, it is a suspicious URL, fake promotion, or something else related to these examples.
Don’t leave unwelcome messages for persons you do not know.
#4 Chatting at the wrong time
Some users of mobile phones do not know the right time to place a call. Sometimes, in the middle of the night or so early in the morning, they call to make inquiries about issues that are not urgent and could wait an hour or two.
#5 Making video calls to “strangers” or people you are chatting with for the first time
This amounts to a breach of privacy protocols. The social media user you are video calling if you are not close associates must have agreed that you call them via video. If no such prior agreements were reached, make a normal audio call.
