Is it just me, or is it a right pain when you click on a post or something on fb or insta to expand it and it automatically sends you a message on WhatsApp or messenger!

Drives me bonkers, I just wanted to look at the rest of your post! Not start a conversation with you!

AIBU to report them as spam and block?!

Because that's what it is, I didn't ask you to contact me, and since you spammed me, I definitely won't be now!

The WhatsApp one is even worse, do they now have my number? They better not!!! Just because i wanted to look at the post, I didn't open a conversation!!!!

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

I'm not sure what you're on about tbh.

Is there something in your settings?

I just googled your problem (for you).

If you don't press "send" they won't get your number.

I've never had this happen and I've been on the Internet so long my email address is [email protected]!

Nope. Never had this happen. Are you clicking on live chat, which is via WhatsApp?

FarmGirl78 · 11/10/2026 01:22

Unless it's something in your settings? And i changed mine so long ago I've forgotten it was a thing. 🤷🏻‍♀️
