Could you please investigate this scammer – Sana Ako si Ricky Lee
who uses your site to discuss feng shui as a means of selling Buddist amulets which are never delivered. He is also mentioned on the internet by people who are his victims. -
Hello @mcarthurmeredith,
It sounds like you’re trying to report a site that you think violates WordPress.com’s Terms of Service.
Here are full instructions on how to report a site for abuse so it can get to the folks who review those reports: https://en.support.wordpress.com/report-blogs/

I don’t know where you mean by the three dots. they certainly arn’t on my screen. Could you please contact me. This guy that I am reporting is a well known and skillful scammer, and apart from my own experience is well documented as such on google.
-
Good to know. Try reporting it with this form instead, and see if that works: https://en.wordpress.com/abuse/

I have gone to the page you recommended. The problem is that none of the options given relate to scamming, i.e. getting people’s trust by talking about a topic as a way of inducing people to spend money. This guy is so shonky he should be shut down right now while you investigate.
What do I do ? Do you actually care? I think it is shameful that such a person should use a respectable internet platform as a way of scamming people. -
Further to what I have just said, I have gone on the site you have recommended and highlighted next to ‘abuse’, then clicked continue.
Nothing happened. -
“The term ‘online fraud’ refers to any type of fraud scheme that uses email, web sites, chat rooms or message boards to present fraudulent solicitations to prospective victims, to conduct fraudulent transactions or to transmit the proceeds of fraud to financial institutions or to others connected with the scheme”…….this is a definition that I have just found. Perhaps you should add it to your list.
-
When you hit “continue”, did you see a page that says “Report this content as abusive”, with a box at the bottom to include your report? Were you able to type in that box and submit it?
It definitely seems like fraud would be covered under the illegal activity in the user guidelines so it is certainly worth reporting.

thanks htotess. i may have succeeded in submitting this information.
I may have put the wrong URL in, as I’m not really familiar with this terminology. -

@mcarthurmeredith These public forums are not the appropriate venue for posting such material. Since you have reported the site to our Terms of Service team via the report blog form, they will review the site in question.
The ToS team are the only ones who can make a determination about the site, so I’ll go ahead and close this forum thread.
