...alone. Over the next few days, I heard a dozen or so complaints from people that Tagged had spammed their entire contact list. One quick sweep of the blogosphere reveals a multitude of Tagged victims, dating back to 2007. But the scam is red-hot now. "Don't Get Tagged!" one blogger warned on June 6.

Some Kashmir watchers also say that the chief minister's early response to the Shopian incident - that there was no evidence of foul play and that the women had likely drowned - got him into trouble.
