Have you ever been talking to someone in pm and had a warning pop up from SW saying that if anyone asks you for money or your personal info to report

Them immediately?

Thought I would chime in here... we were talking in PM about churches and I said something about money and he said something about wills and it generated the warning. I think he was concerned as he has never received those kinds of messages. I explained that if you say certain words or topics it kicks out the warning be it pics, money or suicide

This a reminder to protect yourself from the sun. You heard the chime, don’t become a meme.

Ok so I’m no poet or radio announcer. 😂@MyPokerFace

Yes and one time I got a message from SW saying someone was concerned that I was suicidal😳??? So they sent me links to help me out which was nice but they were barking up the wrong tree. 🤔

Yes, a couple of times when we were talking about jobs with good pay. Like others have said, it's triggered by certain words, and I think it's overkill too.

yep! Key words and phrases trigger these warnings. The mere mention of an e-mail account, or even "money" in general, can lead to one of these warnings popping up. If you so much as mention "suicide" or " killing yourself" ,you will be prompted to seek help via some on line suicide prevention program.

Yes, it's overkill and annoying.

I've seen that lots of times.
Yes. I think that should be a general TOS topic. What happens is some people complain and someone gets a "scarlet letter". That just creates a tool for people who want to harass someone. All they have to do is file a false complaint, and some poor sap gets a "scarlet letter".

If you use the trigger words in the PM
