Had a report that someone is using our pics and sending them to others on here. The person who reported it to us won't tell us the profile so we can report them, besides taking ours down which we have now done for safety, is there anything else we can do? |

Cant understand why someone wouldnt tell you the name of the person. They are either involved or making it up. Have you seen any evidence that someone has actually used your pics? |

I'd report the information to admin, who always take action. Tell them all of the details of those you know, their message etc, not that they have probably done anything wrong, so that admin have an easier route to investigate what may have been wrongly done by a third party.
Photos typically have the userID within them too, helping to recover their origins.
For now, you may be better just keeping photos private, as you have done, then sharing privately if you want to. You could edit the pics, writing in your profile name, so that you obliterate a fair bit of the pic, making it less reusable as easily as if it hadn't got parts removed. Site supporters are also able to attach pics to messages, with the option for it only to be viewed on that one first opening - it's then deleted for all subsequent message views. That site supporter option may give you improved control of anyone trying to get access for the wrong reasons. Apps offsite will often give you no protection from others having good copies that they might then use.
It's always best to report anything troubling or wrong to admin, as they need our help to maintain high standards here for us all. |

mine were stolen too and fake profiles set up. one on another site and 1 on kik. The 1 on kik was offering services for money (u had to pay in advance) i was forwarded the profiles and reported them. they had my full face in them so now i’ve put most of my pics where u can see my full face on friends only and i’m very careful who i add. |

Wartermark your photos I guess but once on line there isn't a lot you can do. |
