Thanks, Fred Grossberg From: leverettconnects at groups.io On Behalf Of Louise Antony via groups.io Sent: Saturday, December 21, 2024 3:10 PM To: Leverett Connects Subject: [LeverettConnects] Hassle from "Gain Rep"? An inquiry and a warning Dear Neighbors, I'm wondering if any of you have had any experience with a platform called "Gain Rep"? It seems on the surface to be a networking app, like LinkedIn, but my experience with it makes me think there is something very sketchy going on. I received an invitation to join this network from a casual acquaintance, and thought why not, so I clicked and said yes. But shortly thereafter, I began getting lots of emails from folks who had received "invitations" ostensibly from me. Some of these people were people I barely knew; others were friends and professional acquaintances. Many of them wanted to know whether I had actually sent this "invitation," which I absolutely had not. (I wish I had checked with the person I received my "invitation" from -- it turns out she herself had been victimized in the same way I had.) I am spending about an hour a day writing apologies and explanations, and I'm sick of it. (Plus I'm very upset that so many people are being bothered with this!). I have tried to get myself off of the platform, but the website doesn't really explain how -- one has to "sign in" to one's "network" and I am loathe to give it any more information or encouragement. I don't know what the scam is, how they got into my contacts list, and what they are trying to accomplish, but I've decided that something stinks If anyone knows anything about this, and especially if anyone knows how to sever connections with it, I'd be very grateful to hear from you.

I can't vouch for them, please proceed carefully if you try this: If you logged in with Google, here are next steps: Log in to Gainrep: https://www.gainrep.com This feels counterintuitive, but without logging in, you can?t stop it from emailing your contacts, even if rescind access on your Google Account. Be sure to log in with the same Google account as you did when making an account. Navigate to connections and find the queue of emails at the top. Click ?queue? and delete all. This stops the website from continuing to spam your contacts after you delete your account. Navigate to settings, scroll down, unsubscribe from all emails, then delete your account. It will ask you to retype your name as confirmation. I also changed my name to "Does Not Exist" along the way, as a bonus. Rescind Google account access by logging into your Google account security portal: https://myaccount.google.com/ Navigate to Security, scroll down to Your Connections to Third Party Apps & Services, click on GainRep and delete.
