Hi,
I have hidden all aspects of my profile within the privacy settings, but a guy sent me a message with photo's attached asking if I would like to chat to him etc. He lives hundreds of miles away from me.
I replied and asked how was he able to message me if I am not suppose to come up in any searches, no profile on show etc. The reply I recieved was: " I am clever". Blocked him and reported to admin and asked how this can be, but no reply from anyone.
Today I have logged on to a guy sending a "wink" to me, again miles away.
Is there a break in the system somewhere that anyone knows of that is allowing these to get through?
Thanks |

You may be on their hotlists so they can see when you are online even though they can't find you in a search. Set your filters to stop others and block these two or they will be able to send you other messages. |

I feel that you have the most likely explanation here that they had her in their hotlist.
A bit harsh reporting them for messaging you surely ?  |

I have never reported anyone before. When the guy messaged me I saw the report button to ask admin how come the guy could get through after his comment of " I am clever"...wasn't meant as a nasty thing. Just asked a question. Peole hide for a reason and others' should respect that. |

Someo people just say things that they think will freak them out...take no notice.
You could always ignore and delete anyone that you think isn't showing you respect. |

Even when you hide your profile, if you post in the Forums, people can message you (via your hidden profile). Use your Filters to filter OUT as many people as possible, and this should reduce the problem.
When you decide to unhide your profile, remember to review your filters, so that people can start to get in touch again x |
