Help needed re "followers"

[Lancs-one]

Hi All,

Not really cardiac related, but I have had an email from this forum telling me that someone is following me on here.

The email he/she has sent says they want to send me photos.

Well no thank you.

Has anyone else had this scamming and how do you get rid of them and stop the following you?

Apologies All. I realise I should not have posted the full email address of the person following me - even though I believe it to be a scam.

Admin - how do I edit my post to take out the email address?

Hi Lancs-one - I've removed the email address from your post. At the bottom of posts, if you select the 'More' tab it should give you the option to report a user. It looks like this individual has been causing issues on other forums too so please do continue to ignore any messages and continue reporting anything you spot. At the moment the user has been removed - hopefully the issue is resolved!

Same here, I,m dubious about this!

Actually it’s the same one Rodriquez

Quite a lot of us have heard from this person and are ignoring him.

Thank you all. I have just deleted the email. I was tempted to add it to all mailing lists of all political parties - including the USA ones. That would have given him/her a headache !!!!

If you report the post, the moderators (BHF) should be able to block this person and remove the comments

If you google the email address you will find that she trawls the internet forums asking people to contact her with messages such as: "My name is Mayra Rodriguez (Sgt), I pick interest on you Reply me through email." I hope she can be bocked.

Just wanted to say this happened to me as well. I ignored the email.

[Lancs-one]

Thank you all for the advice. Admin support have contacted me to say they have removed this person form the site, so hopefully there will be no more scam emails from them.
