    Hey Ducky!!

    Long time no talk :)

    Lol,anyway,I used to get all those fake requests too,

    I just marked them as spam and blocked who I did not know.

    I also found this on another yahoo answers question(On how to block messenger request from people you don't know)" on the messenger box, click

    Messenger > Preferences > Ignore List : tick the box to ignore anyone who is not in your messenger list. click OK to apply."

    Source(s): Hope I helped. Good luck :) Also link to that question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=201010...

    I regularly get requests in my e mail from folks that I don't know! I supply them a threat in my contacts record and if they don't seem to be right then I transfer them! I think you probably did the improper thing! You would have lost whatever very major with the aid of denying the contact!
