I logged on today and was sent a message. I looked at the profile and it was a 19 year old (no ethnicity shown - why). Then when I clicked on the subject I was redirected to a website - wierd. How come this site allows that to happen?
The site address was:
***REMOVED***

Then why dont you click on the report button, its no good telling people on the forum, you need to REPORT these things when this sort of thing happens. Confused

Thanks for your reply. I was under the impression that the site owners looked at
this forum so that they could take action and remove the spammers. Would that not make sense?

The profile in question (sexyiva) does not have a button to report. Why does this profile look and act differently to your average profile? Strange, very strange indeed.

They probably do.......but if you report it they should be able to deal with it sooner, I have had on several occassions been asked for money by people overseas which I was lead to believe were in the UK, now I know what to look for I steer clear & report any that seem a bit on the strange side. Confused

Sorry I dont know why it should be so different, there should be a contact button to be able to email the site owners, if not hopefully they will get to read this very soon, sorry i'm not much help. Good luck. Smile

Thanks for your contact. I was confused as to why the profile was different. It seems that some people can put up a profile that is protected from reporting. Also it was strange that the subject in the message linked to a website. So I didn't even get to read the message.
