xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted December 6, 2010 Hey everyone.So for the past 2 weeks i have had messages from some person talking to me. He claims to want to talk to my over email and he said that he has some business over in the UK(Obviously got that i was from the uk from somewhere...) that he wants me to help him with and it will make me alot of money.He keeps asking for my details to my visa so he can send me some cash...... A big NO NO!!This is NOT true. He just wants to steal from me or pass my details on...PLEASE...if you have a random message from a person then please dont answer it....They just started off generally talking to me and now this happens. I tried ignoring him but he keeps spamming me...Dont trust anyone!I have reported him and everything but facebook isnt doing anything about it....or they havent read my report yet...but he keeps bothering me and wont leave me alone....iv tried blocking him but he makes another facebook and messages me from there.This is really creepy and i hate it Just please be careful!If anynoe has any information on what i can do about this person then please help me out....Thanks for reading this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toulouse 0 Posted December 6, 2010 I'm so sorry to hear that you are getting stalked by someone. I hope Facebook does something soon. I can say this to maybe help you out: there is a setting somewhere in facebook that allows you to only receive messages from friends. Go and have a look in privacy settings, where you can find at the top Connecting on Facebook. There you can change the settings for people who can send messages to your profile. I have mine on 'friends only', and only receive PMs from friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted December 6, 2010 This is earliest message from him now!....This is getting quite annoying =('so that you last word the amount is 155000000 milion dollars and that is not a dream because i will meet you after travel to your country' obviously this person is trying to groom young girls/boys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted December 6, 2010 Ok so an update on this.....This person is trying to make me open a visa for him....And give him all the details of the visa because he dont have 'enough money to open one'Iv messaged him back saying 'Either leave me aloe or im going to take court action against you for harrassment'Which is what he is doinf at the moment due to me telling him to leave me alone....He hasnt left me alone so thats harassment...right?This is madness... my facebook just wont block him cause he keeps making different accounts...and i need my messages on cause i have messages from various people about personal things.

Toulouse 0 Posted December 6, 2010 I hope he'll leave you alone now!Too bad you can't change the message settings, otherwise you wouldn't receive anything from him anymore.*hugs* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CharlotteLouise 0 Posted December 6, 2010 I'm really sorry to hear that you're having problems but how can he say he's going to send you a stupid amount of money (millions of dollars) and then say he hasn't got enough money to set up a visa account? Stupid man completelyyyyyyyy contradicting himself, the idiot! I hope you get it sorted soon though Sarah : ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted December 6, 2010 Thanks everyone... Hopefully he has left me alone now but i very much doubt it....He may be in bed now...Hopefully he stops tho cause its really freaking me out now =( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pluna 0 Posted December 6, 2010 I hope that jerk leaves you alone for good! If not, like someone mentioned earlier-fix your privacy settings. If your email address is visible, set it to be seen only by you aka "only me" option. Make the people that post your wall be set to "friends only." In the section of who can add & see your info be set to friends only. That way, you will only be able to add others, and others won't be able to you. If you have blocked him as a friend then he can't send you a message. If he comes up with a million new accounts, he won't be able to add you or send you a message or find you even if he searches your email address. He has only sent you messages through facebook right? Then changing your settings should help. If he sends you emails-like your yahoo or msn account or whatever you use, then you would have to change the settigs there too. Good luck!

myladyyawo 0 Posted December 12, 2010 So happy you got it sorted sweetie, lets hope it stays that way. Next time just don't respond to people like that, even arguing with them or stating an opinion can make them keep going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
