• In the past two days I have gotten emails asking about being requested to provide credit card info in order to register and also to make a post in the classifieds forums. PLEASE NOTE: In no instance will this site ask you for this sort of information. The only time any request for payment is made is if you choose to opt-in for a higher membership level, and that is done SOLELY through PayPal. Anything else is coming from a source other than this site. My guess is that this is coming through Google Adsense, but when I can get someone to send me a screen shot of this sort of request, I will know more.
  • Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

How do you report suspicious activity?

I suspect I communicated with a guy that posed as a potential customer but I feel he was just fishing for personal info. How do I go about reporting him to site admin for possible banning?
 
Why not just make a BOI post about them...(Inquiry, not Bad Guy), that way if anyone has information about them they can let you know.

Sorry, but we do not ban people just based on someone else's suspicions. Normally only violations of this site's rules and policies are grounds for banning.

Bear in mind that if you feel a person is violating the rules and policies, the burden will be on YOU to prove your case. We are not private investigators. Nor are we prone to act on vague unsubstantiatable claims. We are not all that keen on compounding your possible mistake with our own mistake.

So, FACTS and DETAILS, please. If this is going to be a public accusation against a member, then as has been suggested, the BOI will be your best bet as the appropriate venue for such a discussion.
