Fight the Pinterest Hackers

If you are an active Pinterest user, you may have noticed this Best Buy pin all over the place.... don't repin it. It's fake.
Hey Hackers--- you got nothing better to do!?


Here is how you can REMOVE this pin from your PINTEREST BOARD:

1. Click the hacked pin (only once!)

2. When it enlarges... type edit at the end of the URL


3. DELETE PIN....

Hope that helps!
