I admit that I’m not one for ‘social networking’ sites, nor am I interested in maintaining a ‘blahg’ (note the spelling–that’s exactly what it would be). However, I do have an old Friendster account which from time to time gets some random message–usually from a “female”–asking me to e-mail them at some e-mail account, typically a Yahoo or Hotmail account.
The arbitrary nature and relatively vague “out of the blue” message leads me to ask, is this some sort of way people are trying to find active e-mail accounts to spam?
“I know, let me send someone a message telling them I like their profile, and tell them to write me back at a Hotmail address! Pure GEEENYUS!” 
Anyone else get this?

I say “female” because that’s what their profile says. That may not be what they are tho. . .
