I couldn't find how to report a scammer so I suppose this is the best location. Someone is doing the old "pls cash a money order for me as I'm stuck in Africa" scam. I brushed them off but I noticed they are still logging in once or twice a day so I suspect they have a few other folks they are trying to scam. Hate to post screen names but if the webmaster wants to know so they can investigate then just let me know.

You might want to send them some money just to be sure it is a scam before you report them. Keep us posted.

You could always ignore them.

You can report profiles, email and journal entries. There are report buttons on each of those, oh and there are report buttons in the forums as well.

Just sent me $10, and I will make sure that you are not bothered by scammers ever again.
