Has anyone else had a healthy male wanting to be friends on this site ? is he fake and a scammer ? Sent early this morning. Concerned , as he has quite a few ladies he is following on here . Is this allowed on this site ? I have reported it to the technical people . If he is genuine , sorry , but in this day and age you have to question these matters . He is new on today but already following 86 ladies !

There are people out there who prey on vulnerable ladies so take care x

Thanks for the heads up.

I got a follow notification from this person.

I didn’t know who to contact as I found it strange

Me three. It sounds like somebody who wants to take advantage of a sick, scared, upset woman. When I saw that he was removed, I figured the admin handled it.

To take advantage of us. Maybe thinking if he plays his cards right he will be left an iheritance. He doesnt know we are fighters and that we are sticking around for the cure or remission. Creepy people our there....

So he could befriend them and get them to leave him money in their wills

I know. Weird

Is this "Williamson252" that you are referring to? I noticed that this person is following me too. But when I click there is no link. So hopefully he is gone. These people need to leave us alone!

Did the admin respond to You? That's inappropriate behavior on this site.

Yes , they wrote back to me at 1pm BST , saying the male user in question had now been banned from our site and that they are ‘always working to detect spammers before they can bother our members , so hopefully this is the last time ‘ x

I did. I told him to get off of our site and then reported him! He does appear to be gone now.

If he is a sicko he will try to come back with another name. We always need to be careful of scam artists and wack a doodles.

He tried to befriend me too, but it was gone. I’m glad the administrators have our back. I’m sure most of us would roll our eyes and ignore him since this is definitely not a dating site!😄

I hate to sound so cynical but that just sounds creepy. Really, go find friends somewhere else.

That hasn't happened to me but it certainly is creepy! For a long time I was part of a long time on line group and we did have a few men who were members, a very few like maybe 4 in the over a decade time I was part of it. Three were husbands of women with mbc and were really very dear men. One was a pharmacist and has alot of good insight into meds. But for several months there was a man who said he had mbc himself and he may have but he could be provocative and demeaning and he was eventually kicked off the site. I think we all have to be careful when we are out here on line because there are unscupulous people. And even some woman with mbc can be manipulative and pot stirring! Sigh. If only we humans could be perfect...... of course then cancer would not exist.......
