What can you say about this??
Can you really believe a good project with good concept would forcefully invite you into their community without any prior notice??
This is the act of irresponsible spammers, they deliberately save our cellphone number to be entered into an unclear telegram group, we cannot do anything for this only the Telegram can repair the systemCan you really believe a good project with good concept would forcefully invite you into their community without any prior notice??
Good projects will never use the services of spammers like this to add members to their groups, good projects will have their own ways to attract investors
Those who use services like this are just SCAM projects
Maybe read the entire thread... You can easily adjust your privacy settings, so people can't add you to groups.
Someone has mentioned that a couple of posts above you.
Invitation without prior notice and done by bots? A BIG NO NO. To avoid those invitations to happen again, do this.
1st : Open your telegram account, go to settings
2nd : Go to Privacy and Security
3rd : Under Privacy, go to Groups then select "My Contacts" as Who can invite you to groups and channels
4th : Don't add any contacts. Just join your desired channel if you wish by getting their TG Profile link then Save.
Those invitations might be a part of bounty campaign or artificial growth of community to attract investors for selfish reasons. Leave those groups and report spam if you wish.

Now, I do think that Telegram should have that function enabled by default.
It is not usually done by the team but rather some greedy bounty hunters. They get rewards per the number of users they are able to invite into the group. Because of their selfish interest, they will add you even without prior notice.

And they advertise with this added telegram participant who are not aware they are part of the group. They are serious spammers as you rightly said more-also, many investors are victims when they announces they telegram group numbers on social media like Facebook, the announcement goes like this: "Congratulations we have just pluck over 35,000 members on our telegram group". No wonder they use PLUCK, really its pluck because they do that in a dubious ways.
Am also a victim of the same issue and I think it's not really the best way to create a community for a project. No serious project will embark in such a spamming promotion to grow their community. I think there's a way to disable this but am yet to figure it out.

That's happening, I even have a lot of group now in telegram that I did not remember I joined.
I don't know how to configure my telegram so people will ask permission first before adding me, I not a heavy user of telegram so I don't explore it a lot.

With this simple explanation i was able to get ride off the mess and now believe that unsolicited telegram group add will be a thing of the past. Thanks for your help.
Almost every day we face this situation. Because many community use telegram & we cannot judge scamming group of bounties & altccoin.
I always report and leave from the telegram that I don't want even some time ago I was invited to join one of the telegram then I asked about team, products etc ... but they couldn't answer and then kicked me from there

This happens to anyone using telegram ,I hope there will be some kind of upgrade that will stop the forced invite ,many of them are scam or bots ,we need to be more careful

I have the same problem with the telegram. especially many invitations without your consent in the web version of the telegram. those who add you get paid for it. I'm mostly added to the bounty airdrop group.Unfortunately in the web version I did not find the settings to prevent the addition of me without my permission but in the version on the smartphone and on the PC, this feature is available. Avoid such groups
So I noticed I've been forcefully invited by bots into multiple telegram community which I never wanted to join.. and most of these communities are either ponzi schemes or from #icos which claim to be legit companies with one or two things to offer in the crypto space..

I think what you can really do is to report them as SCAM, and there you can get rid of them. For now, there is not feature that will going to support full privacy since telegram is already known to be one of a decentralized media platform to consider. For the mean time, you might also leave group chats for them not to trace your username.

I think it's only done by junk projects or, sometimes, scams.
Just leave them, and maybe report spam if you feel so.
