I got a private message and a chat thing.  Ick.  I want to say, "Dude, we're grieving, but we're not stupid."

I wonder if the moderators can explain that it's not appropriate and that if he wants to join in, he needs to do it in whichever forums apply.

[KayC]

Haha, I was stupid!  Replied, thought it was Johnny from the pet forum, didn't notice he was knew.  He said he lost his wife three years ago.

There's instructions just above the message that tells what to do.  I guess ignoring/blocking (see settings) always works too.

I got a second message. Now he has added me to some Google chat. He says he has my email and that was how he added me. I did report him. It scares me.

I went to Google hangouts, had to download, and blocked and reported him. It said he has called me. Are people able to get our personnel information from this app?

I haven't been able to post the last couple of hours when the update started.  I couldn't message, but I was able to chat with the moderator and she has banned Captainjohnny007 from the website.  No idea how he got into your google account  @beaniele scary!  I'm glad you were able to block and report him. 

 

[beaniele]

I got an email from Kelly the founder and she has taken him off with the IP address he was using. He could use another one, let's hope not.

She blocked him from the website, he'd had to use a different IP address to register again...if so, we'll report & block again.

[Billie Rae]

Thanks all.What do people think?if we are on a site like this We are obviously not looking.smh.

I can't see chat now, it used to be at the bottom, popped up, now if I click on chat it says I don't have permission to view it.  ???  Anyone else having problems?  Just started as they're upgrading again...
