[Oe List ...] Change of policy on non-member posts and other news from Tim

[Roxana Harper via OE]

Yes, Gordon's Facebook page has been hacked.  Unfortunately, I do not have his password so I cannot change it.  I am not on Facebook and do not want to be, so I am somewhat at a loss as to how to have Facebook delete his information!   Len Hockley is working on it for me and perhaps some of you more advanced computer techies can contact Facebook and get him removed.  His date of death is February 8, 2016 -- but that's about all the information I can give you, as he had a couple of email accounts and I am not sure which he used for Facebook.

Many thanks for any assistance you can give!
Peace,
Roxana

I just got got a sequence of 5 duplicate emails from Facebook each with the same stats on our church Fb page. If everyone is getting weird stuff it may have started with Facebook.

> Tim, I seem to be one who is being inundated with spam the last few days.  At first it was just random ads, which I was trying to get unsubscribed from.  But they were asking for my address to unsubscribe me.  Then the porn started.  I'm now getting twice as many even tho I mark them as junk or say block the sender.     Any advice?

I have to look through a big list of spam for those aforementioned attempts at posting from you folks before sending the spam messages off to oblivion.

But this means if you attempt to post from the wrong email, it simply won't work and I will not be alerted and will not be able to rescue you as I have been doing for lo these many years.
