Guess I am must still be a bit naive even at my age but was surprised to receive a 'contact request' through this site from a young girl posing in a pic in her underwear lol. Made me rather sad that you can't escape the scammers etc. even on here

Hi Dee,

please report that profile, and we will delete it instantly.

We've programmed many algorithm to block scammers, but still have to intervene manually sometimes.

All the best

Think someone else may already have done that as when I tried to open the link it said 'you have no contacts, and when I clicked on 'view profile' it came up Error 404 page not found. Saves me a job lol

Hi Dee56,

If you see the Error 404, this means that a moderator has already banned and deleted that fake account.

We are sorry for this bad experience and please feel free to click on the report button if you unfortunately encounter another one.

We will take care of it immediately.

Thanks,

Priscilla
