How to block people?

[Aiden L]

I keep getting unwanted messages from people claiming to be from networks/traffic sources etc. Asking me to promote their service for money.It’s obviously fake considering they always have 0 posts and have joined around 10 mins ago. Always have bullshit names aswell.
How do I block/remove them?

I know it’s bs but I don’t want noobs falling for it and possibly being scammed. People claiming to pay you for posting a link in a forum of all places are clearly con artists.

I don't think you can block the unknown (like a whitelist might).
best to just be skeptical ...

i think you have an option to leave the conversation.
and you can also report so that super mods will take care of that.

First of all, always report these Mother******s to us using the "Report" option.

Secondly, in your member preferences, go to Security and change the "Allow Users To: Start conversations With You:" option.

Cheers will do that now.
