Do you get nervous clicking on unknown links, I know I do. I am not a complete novice any more where security on the web is concerned. I realise that even known connections can have compromised email accounts and send me links which could get me into trouble. But, where social media sites are concerned, and let me use #Twitter as an example, I am even more careful about what links I chose to click on. What makes me extra nervous is a new follower who has not engaged with me, really knows much about me at all and they private message me. When I check out the message often I will find a Thank You which is great, then a "check out my blah, blah, blah, at this link". No way! Why would I?
If you want me to check out something and I hardly know you do not be surprised if I ignore you request.
