No idea, I'm lost. Damn Sat nav!

Its far too easy to be duped online so just be very very weary who you share any personal information with and try to be as safe as you possibly can x

you can trace someone from an email address so dont give that out either unless you trust them, and preferably know about them as well

Someone I know who is on plenty of fish had her photos on there used by a female on here trying to pass herself off as my friend. Word got out and she got a lot of hassle. I reported it for her and obviously they were kicked off....but surely the folk who run this site must have a good idea who these scumbags are?????

I had a similar sort of a problem when my photo's from Fabs turned up on Facebook. The pics were somehow spotted by a person from my home town - you can only begin to imagine the problems I've had ever since!

It is really sad that there are individuals out there who make it their purpose to cause others grief.

I thankfully dont have the worry of being 'outed' as my friends n family know i use the site , but i do feel for those who feel the need to keep it discreet.

Omg that's just awful and malicious I feel for you x also one of the reasons for not using face pics and bring very wary of who I add as friends and allow to even see my private gallery it's unfortunate that people are like this bit hope it doesn't put you off as there are lots of nice genuine folk on here

You gave out photos?

Did you tell them where you worked?

Maybe they worked in same place as you?

There is legislation in place to act on this kind of shit, my advice is to go to the police. Its nothing they havn't dealt with before.

That's so bad that this person or ppl can do that to a person over and over again. He must know them if they can keep on finding him

The thing is that every with a small bit of information it can be easy enough to track folk down if you want to.

I proved not that long ago to someone on POF that she had put way too much information on her page.

Just lets say I proved it to her (in a very nice way and not stalking). She was shocked to say the least that from some stuff she posted that her address could be found out etc etc.

So I would say yes be careful. There are sick b'stards out there who will do anything for kicks.
