Hello I have only been a member for about 2 weeks.


Needless to say I feel cheated after 2 weeks of effort and hope.

Can I block him or report him somewhere?!

I dont want him to rip anyone off or tell anyone else any B.S.

Hi Merrysea,

Please report any member you feel is a scammer. You can do this from the emails/IMs or from the members profile. You can block members from emails and IMs so they are unable to contact you. The site will look into it.

Thank you,

...GET'EM...:thumbsup:

We do :wink:

That member has been banned, MerrySea, and we will not tolerate scammers.

I do want to explain this, not just for you, but for everyone.

Please, report them by email, or from their profile. At the bottom of the email, there is a report abuse link. On the profile, to the right of the main pic, "report this user" (be as detailed as possible in the dialog)

We want to discourage posting of user names on the forum boards. If there is a question about someones validity, please, either use the report feature, or contact our mods. A list of current forum mods can be found here

Thanks, and we hope you are enjoying Mingle2.

Mark, Charles, Vanchau, and the site mods.

Basically, anyone, who attempts to scam money from our members. We do not appreciate it, It's best, to report these people, (if suspected) to myself, or Charles. We will evaluate the claim, and take the necessary actions.
