I'm still seeing some ICOs launching a telegram "ADD" bounty campaign and I feel sorry for those who are being added without their consent. I thought this was pretty basic but it seems many are still unaware that they can set who can add them. So if you are very much active on telegram and you do not want your account getting dragged by these abusive hunters, do the following steps:
1. Go to your Settings
2. Click "Privacy and Security"
3. Click "Groups"
4. Select who can invite you to groups and channels (choose "My contacts")
i hope this helps.
Much needed...! I haven't searched how to do it or tried to look into the TG settings before because of my busy life.
Every day my mood gets off when I open up TG. So many groups/channels added me without my consent, it's uncountable.
+1 merit for bringing it up in front of me. Thanks!
