"Set your filters to stop newbies and unverified from messaging. Good luck lovely" Haven't thought of that, thank you. I have set the filter to stop profiles without public pictures from messaging but that obviously is not working! | |||

"Keep blocking Keep deleting Keep reporting That’s what I do with the one who repeatedly rejoins and messages me. It takes some dedication to start a profile and wait the 2 weeks for the newbie filter to be unlocked and get verified, just to be immediately blocked and ignored 🙄🤣 The alternative is to start a whole new profile I would think " He's been kicked off for being nasty I gather. As he put it, entitled people who I guess don't want to interact with him. Then I workout it's him and block him again. | |||

" Who is verifying him immediately on the new profile?- it’s likely to be a non-genuine account too. I sympathise- I’ve had two - my worst stalker created 6 profiles over two years, contacted people who verified me and said malicious nasty things about me (Fab friends alerted me to this) and even turned up at an event when I was with my son. I went offline for almost a year. Thankfully she has given up. Fab didn’t do anything even though all the profiles were likely from the same IP address, she was being verified, and I’m not sure how old an account has to be to get through the newbies filter. I was on the verge of contacting the police when she gave up and went quiet. | |||

"It's beginning to feel like I have a stalker. He's now on profile number four having been kicked off again, that's a red flag for me. I've made it clear we will not be meeting but he keeps coming back. Not interested in chatting either. Blocked again this morning on a profile that was made 17 hours ago. Guys like this take the fun out of being on here. Apart from being a shadow and changing my username I can't think of any other way apart from keep blocking ![]() Unfortunately each time they set up a profile you will have to block. We have a few that as soon as they rejoin (once a week at least) they look at us within seconds of joining. Lucky they dont know we can see they looked so we block straight away | |||

"I feel for you op and anyone else with a stalker. Mines is on here, but he rarely lets his profile be known. he likes to message me outwith fab saying…I like your new pic, I see you had a meet, etc. it’s mentally draining and I’ve wanted to give up so many times…but then he’s won, and I’m not giving him that satisfaction. " Damn that is wearying. Maybe block his number from your phone / Facebook etc? | |||

"We've been there and it's not fun. It proper sucks the fun out of the whole place. We've had one guy make probably about 30 different profiles (that I clocked, so maybe more), just to look at our profile and then delete his account before blocking was an option. I didn't realise you could block new, and unverified members then, so I would definitely give that a shot. 🫶🏼" How do people even have the time and effort to do this? | |||

"We had some recent issues too, it spooked us and we’re still a little wary" I’ve changed all of our filters on both my own and our couple profile, any new person with the same style and mannerisms gets an instant block too as the filters change the message sending but not the forums/seeing of profile that I understand. | |||

"Jesus, sounds awful OP. I thought I had it bad with random gay guys sending me pics of their bum hole 🤮 Stalking someone is just another level. I don't understand why the culprit can't be traced by IP address and warned by police. In 2025 such behaviour is not acceptable." I might be mistaken but I'm there's a way of bypassing IP addresses, so sometimes it can be near impossible to trace. | |||

Tbh I suspect that most stalkers are not that IT literate, besides even with VPN. When you're committing such a serious crime, I think the police can still trace you. The criminals deserve to be outed and publicly humiliated in front of their own families and friends. Maybe that will make them stop. | |||

"Report to Admin. I wonder if they may be able to permanently block his IP address 🤔" It’s easy to change your ip address. And using a vpn and private relay makes tracking individuals by website owners all but impossible. That’s what they are designed to do, create anonymity. I believe there are ways but they are incredibly expensive. We have had a few stalkers over the years. Most are just annoying but one wants to out us to family. | |||

Those things have been successful for me so far x I don't want to start again ![]() Just thought - when you next block, immediately change your profile name and location, and take down any public pictures they would recognise. Could be one way to avoid being found again - at least certainly in the short term. | |||

"Set your filters to stop newbies and unverified from messaging. Good luck lovely" Yup I was going to say use message filters. this is why I block all single men. I pick and choose who gets to message me. I message them first and then they can message me as long as they behave. Usually men I've searched for near me or men I've met in person | |||

"The fact that so many have had a problem with this is not a good sign that it can be stopped ![]() The profile disappears from my block list so it won’t be in use anymore. Plus he gets banned over and over so definitely one to avoid. | |||

"Sorry to hear this OP. I had a crazy person from this site find my Facebook a few months ago right before I took a fab break. She started trying to add my Mum and siblings and everything without me knowing. It was weird and made me nearly quit the site altogether. We've had this very same thing from a couple contacted our children in the end reported to police and as far as i know they got fab to block there ip as not seen them on here since " | |||

I have something similar with a guy who keeps creating fake profiles that are really specific to my non sexual interests, so he’s obviously someone I have spoken to in the past (and I’m guessing didn’t meet). It’s pretty weird to think there’s some random loser thinking so much about me when I doubt I’d remember him | |||
