How does one contact a Yahoo moderator or a Manager?
Is their another way beyond the standard report and block if you have some one impersonating you which is a FELONY in some US states and illegal in most as is harassment.
I am not talking a typical troll here. I mean someone taking things very personal that they impersonate you!
How would you contact some one in Yahoo about it to take care of it beyond emailing the abuse center which NEVER seems to do anything but delete things and never check into anything to see if they are legitimate or not.
Thanks!!
Great C'Kins I appreciate it. No I am not changing my name. I am a fighter not a quitter.
I would rather pursue this and have them jailed than change my name!
I am not ticked even. I find it amusing and funny I just do not want others to get confused that is all!
TY so far!
Using my name Sandy and answering and asking questions as if they were me,
THAT is too much and I am no coward and am not afraid to fight back. Simple as that.

Yes, if you must go beyond reporting them - I'd suggest doing that also and hitting the "This is Illegal" portion...

Good Luck. Hope you get this stopped. C'kins

Impersonating HOW? they use your name, your words, or just harrass you at each turn?
I suspect your best and really only way of dealing with it is to get a new username and move on.
Though it makes you furious, it would me, there is little Yahoo can do if they are using a proxy and as 99.99% of us do, not using any real personal info when signing up.
I know you are ticked and saying move on is not the answer you want but start by using those typical avenues and he bery best of luck.

You can report this abuse two ways. You can report it through the procedure given in the refrence. You can also go to Q&As of the other person, report them and explain in the details. You must mark the abuse as the illegal kind and give complete info.
In the short term, change your user name, make everything private, and dump your friends/network. If they don't follow you, you could come back to the original user name later.

I doubt it, yet dont ignore to comments to yahoo on how cr*p their service is, they might hear. you ought to attempt going to the profile area and relisting a diverse yahoo handle there, that would artwork, then you definately ought to easily ignore in regards to the unsolicited mail and previous e mail and basically use the hot one.
