I wanted to post something in the forum, but then I saw a notice to report scammers immediately by hitting Help. Well, that sure didn't help me. How the heck are you supposed to contact administrators around here?

Anyway I guess I have an administrator now.

Just wanted to let you know I've been hit on several times in my Yahoo IM by people I suspect are from Africa trying "to get to know me." I usually just hit the ignore /spam button, but after seeing a report in Dateline about the scams originating in African Internet Cafes, I decided to respond and see what they would say. Of course, they said they were women who wanted to get to know me, and I wondered how they got my name (guess they could've gotten it off Yahoo, or so I thought), but then one said "she" got it from Plenty of Fish, said her name on POF was Mary Smith, a profile discontinued in May I found when I searched. Just wanted to alert you that other POF members may be vulnerable to scammers, especially if their username on POF is the same as other IM or chat programs.

And by the way, what is the easiest way to contact Admin of POF? I'm not sure how I did it this time.

It would be nice if when I went to my favorites page I could see if any are online and be able to IM one of them from there.



Thank you for your time.
Wayne Pehrson

P.S. Great site. Nice set up, just wish that there were more serious people here. I gather many people that use the site are just playing games.



You can IM from the list of those who have added you. ~ YaYa ~

I have attempted twice to send a reply to a person's profile. After clicking send, I am hijacked to another website denouncing Plentyoffish.com and advertising other sites. I have run AdAware and diskclean to clean my computer and have a firewall as well as Norton. Are you aware that your customers may be stolen like this? Is there anything I can do?

Ok, sorry, can't find a new post button..

But I have a question about censored words in chat...

My friend and I were chatting.. and well it censored the work b a n k... but not the word F^%$... seems a tad odd. as near i can tell, it is to protect ppl from asking or bank account numbers.. but you can type numbers in the form of B a n k acct. #'s...

Instant Messenger Question
Posted: 8/8/2007 2:57:14 AM
I notice that if I am attempting to chat with someone and they do not open the chat window, a "time out" will occur and I get the message, " If xxxxx doesn't receive this message, they will be emailed when you close this window"

Does this feature really work and is an email ever sent that tells the user that someone tried to contact thm?

What is sent to them via email?

I have never received one of these and was wondering if it even works..

thanks

I am not sure who is in charge. I see Fling has ads on pof, they have been reported as a site with many scammers, members beware, lots will end up asking for money and the site does nothing about it.

Was conned into helping someone, lost 5 grand and this is not the last one that has tried a scam

Dear sir/Madam
I have been using this site for at least 5 monthes maybe and have met some rearly fantastic people,I have also met some scammers asking me for money but since being a net user for some time i have got use to this,i only feel for the vulnerable people as this can be a wrotton thing to do to others,any how the reason on paticuler on why i write this e-mail is because tonight i am so stunned that in coversation from who i thought was a lovely lady seemed to be a man!!!!!!!!!! i couid tell because of the discusting way he chatted what gave him away firstly was that he asked me for money and spoke or typed words that were beyond imagination,i actually felt sorry for this person wich is why i chatted.Never have i come across a mind so twisted i dearly feel for the next victim of his,he has a womens profile but is a man i am 100% confident the profile name is ..Username removed.. many thanks for your time and inventing this place its saved me much beer money and i have met some angels,your wonderfull people find a place for thesexx
Regards
Carl Hawkes
