Yeah just don’t link your phone number to it

I think it’s more that that. I have 4 different accounts, and they don’t all have linked contacts or phone number for them, but people would still get the “INSERT NAME HERE has joined instagram as ACCOUNT NAME”. I don’t know the ins and outs, but something is going on there!!

Surly that’s more if you’re linked it to your FB account? So any post will show up on FB as well as Insta. New email, no phone number, no FB account, you should be fine and it goes without saying, don’t use your real name when joining up.

Sounds about right. I’ve probably got it wrong somewhere along the line.

There are so many ways it could be done, thinking about it. Burner phone time!

It could even be linked to the phone in some way, as I’ve had this notification multiple times for accounts that are nothing to do with the person it’s saying…

“Dave Smith is now on Instagram as Heathers hair and beauty centre” or some shite…

That’s what Leo ended up doing. Got to keep the personal and work stuff separate sometimes.

2nd day of the new year and received a letter from Mother in law.
It’s weird.
She’s asking for money for provisions and if we can pay her penalty, she gets to be less isloted.
Also has a clot near her heart that needs treatment, additional cost.
I’m sat here completely helpless as I hadn’t really planned on mass expenditure getting my other half’s parent out of a Japanese prison.
There’s a huge family and it feels like my other half is the only one wanting to take responsibility which, maybe selfishly, isn’t mine either, but it is.

How much we talking here

Not much for provisions, but her penalty is about 15 grand (sterling).
Medical stuff, also massive.

Oooof. That’s a big hit.

What’s the wife’s view?

Can you try and rally the rest of the family round to help out or have their minds been made up on this?

This was my first suggestion, and not even necessarily on a financial basis in the first instance, but it wasn’t received too well…long back story involving old family fall outs etc.
I said that this isn’t the time for them all to be against eachother.
There’s loads to it.

Damn Mush that is savage. What did she get in the end?

7yrs and 2,000,000 yen

I don’t know what your views are on it, but people seem to have amazing success with gofundme platforms etc

So 15,000 fine? Fucking hell.

What did she do again, sorry memory like a Goldfish.

If it was my fam Trench I probs wouldn’t want to Gofund it.

Considered this approach to.
There is an appeal underway through the supreme court in Tokyo.

Yeah Id probably agree, just saw how quick my mate raised cash to get his dad a private eye op and I think that was 10k

Was coerced into carrying something, as yet we do not know what, from London to Japan, having gone from Sweden without telling any family anything and just disappearing in Feb last year.
