Question

http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=AkeKoH8HzNMkwmCx1ruX5HCIxQt.;_ylv=3?show=TkI1B3eQaa

look at his answers.

I thought I should tell you all.

Maybe someone knows how to report him.

Answer 1

thx for the heads up.

Answer 2

On everyone's answer there's a thumbs up, thumbs down, and Report abuse, this guy would belong to the third option.

Also, if some faceless loser posts a link without saying anything, especially if it doesn't have a www. in it, I wouldn't click it. Chances are he may be a bot, or a script kiddy who wants to be a hacker. I couldn't actually view the link he posts. Or maybe he's just trying to get hits to his website. Just don't click strange links and you should be fine.

Answer 3

why is he doing that and what make u think so

Answer 4

Yeah, I have seen him before. He always gives the same type of answers. He always gives some web address. I think others have raised concerns before. I don't know if there is any way to directly report someone. Well, anyway I'll be sure to send an email to Y!A about this guy.

Thanks for alerting us

Answer 5

If you feel this way, just click on "report abuse" on one of his answers, and explain in the comments section.

Answer 6

Wow thanks.

Answer 7

Well this guy is known, I reported to Yahoo about 5 times till today, but always change name and he is back.

Actually his answers is links to ADVERTISING SITES. Some of this sites may contain spyware.

Just DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINKS on his answers.

Have a nice day

Answer 8

who

Answer 9

How wierd! Akward!

Answer 10

thanks.

i never click on those links anyways.

Answer 11

I don't think report abuse works. Yahoo has to read through too much for them to ban the guy unless we all reported him maybe. Even if he did get banned he could probably change his IP address and get a new account. The only way to stop this would be to get yahoo better link scanners.

Answer 12

woah probably thanks for the heads up!

Answer 13

The guy has been doing this for two days now. He had *at least* seven accounts deleted yesterday, but Yahoo! keeps allowing his malicious link through.

After two days and literally HUNDREDS of reports, you would think that Yahoo! would do something to protect their users, but they are asleep at the wheel.

After you report the bad guy, send the Y!A Team an email letting them know how disappointed you are in their failure to protect their users!
