Hey everyone!

As usual alldeaf is plagued with scum who scam and spam alike. Some of you do every well and help catch and report them. Sometimes others sneak in stealthily during the night, while you sleep and lurk the site looking for innocent victims that help them find their 'perfect marriage' and happily-ever-after online relationship.

Please continue to use Banjo's All Deaf Spammer Registry to for reporting them in the public and we will monitor it on our routines.

Here are some tips for when to report that guy (or gal) that looks suspicious to you. The more you combine together, the more likely it is a scammer or spammer.

    A red flag of scammers is that they will try to friend you and when you check their posting history they have none. I will not friend anyone who has no posting history.

    The number one tell tale sign of a scammer is they claim they're a deaf charity or that they need your bank account info to send you money for some lottery you won.

    Do they post a phone number? naisho's note: search the phone number on google if it turns up any matches.

    Do they post their email in public? naisho's note: search that email address on google and see if it appears on other sites! If you have facebook, you can also search their email to see if their details are matching up.

    Are they looking for a relationship? naisho's note: sometimes there's real soul-seekers around here, go easy on them if you are not sure if they are scam or not.

    Words like "I want you!", "I want a real woman!" "I want a real man!", "serious relationship", are all red flags.

    Posting their real name, while it is not forbidden, it's also something not many people do.
  • bl8S4.gif
    Search the username to see if they turn up on other forums - this is solid material.

    Look at their profile to see if there is a website listed in the contact information. If the link looks shady, report the user.

Naisho, may I suggest you put yours and Banjo's Spam alert threads as STICKYS?

This tells you people are very lonely during holidays and Xmas tends to be more depressing for some--- perfect time to prey on.
 
Hummm, that reminds me. I haven't given any money away to scammers recently. I guess they are getting agitated. I'll make them sweat it out a bit longer! :lol:

Just lift your leg and let rip a massive fart at the scammers.. they will leave ya alone.. hehehe
 
I've added input from other members into the original post. Appreciate for your contributions.

Beclak - I'll think and discuss with the other team on where to put it so it will be helpful for AD'ers to see it. Thanks!
