seriously- if you see these click-bait posts without any replies or replies turned off, odds are they're data mining & can plant all sorts of crap in your browser. at best, they're directing traffic for profit- at worst... there's some potentially nasty stuff that can be attached.

Trust me, I’m smart but not concerning technology. Sure that’s probably an oxymoron! I always appreciate it! Please don’t hesitate with all and any advice. Seriously, thank you

best advice I ever got was to hover the mouse cursor over the link to see where it goes- if its prefix is an 'https' odds are it's a secure link, and then note the rest of the address to see if it's recognizable. this also works really well in emails to check for phishing or other stuff.
