Rule 22: Don't ask Nairaland members for contact details (email, phone, bbpin) or investments.

I have been wondering what is wrong in asking for a contact details from friends you meet on this social forum if the person can comfortably give it if he/she has no problems doing dat. Please I need some clarifications.
Thanks.

By requesting for them to post their contact on the forum, you're making them exposing themselves to fraudsters and pranksters. If you want personal contact detail from a close pal, ask them to send you a pm

Thanks @dominique for your clarification. I was thinking that one is not allowed to even ASK not to talk of how the details will be sent.

Well, common sense should tell us that exposing ones details on the forum may not always be healthy. Once again, thanks.
