Best way to rid a perv babe_xxx: I usually respond back with: "hello, it is my pleasure to inform you that I am a 45 year old male, spyig on my daughter...thank you very much" Then I close the window, and they leave the room.  FoxyFallenAngel: i use to say before i became a mod that is:- Im a she male. I have boobs and a px&x$, you SURE you wanna cyba this LOL  D3cyph3r: Cyber911 Emergency Victim profile These are the most frequently asked questions we receive about cyberstalking and/or harassment. We have more extensive information about cyberstalking and cyberharassment, as well as one-to-one help and a self-help interactive guide and tutorial. What it is that makes you such a good target When trying to protect your loved ones and yourself against cyberstalkers, it will help for you to understand what it is about you and loved ones that lure the online predators to you. Of course the main targets are the "new to the Internet", females, children, emotionally unstable, etc. In our experience, 83% are female, but men are also stalked. Being dominated by men, so many more males than females online, their quest for female companionship may be hard sought. This may leave them with a hurt male ego and being jilted he may want revenge. The Internet is becoming more of an entire family communication center. Which is opening up many more victims to be stalked. The thing to remember is that a stalker is someone that wants to be in control. A stalker is not going to pick a victim that is equal to them. This keeps the victim submissive. Someone new to being online is pretty easy to pick out of a crowd. They don't know the chat room lingo, by their profile info, lack of Internet knowledge, etc. Also the type of channel or chat room you enter may give it away that you are new. (Newbie Chats, Getting Started Tour, etc.) These are things stalkers pick up on pretty quickly. Being emotionally unstable is also easy for a stalker to pick up on. Being depressed, upset, abused and chatting about it in an open channel or chat room where everyone can see, will have someone private messaging you to comfort you quickly. This is something a stalker will look for, weakness. People looking to make friends or even find romance online are open to many types of stalkers. We get so many e-mails from victims of an online friendship or romance that has gone bad and the other person involved is not wanting to end it. Victims always feel guilty as if they have brought this all upon themselves. They are wrong. A stalker knows what they are doing and tries to keep the victim feeling intimidated. This is how they keep control over their victim. But the people being stalked need to know that it is never their fault. They can be a survivor of the stalking if they know how to stop it and also prevent it. The best way to arm yourself is to not give into a stalker. Stand your ground and the stalker will go on to an easier prey. D3cyph3r: Nobody's thinking outside the box: Set up a fake profile as a 16 year old girl. Yeah I know you're supposed to be 18 so choose that and tell everyone you're 16 in your profile (seems to happen a lot anyway). Wait for for the pervs to come trolling alone and when they cast the bait, pretend to swallow it (forgive the pun). Capture the entire conversation and then blog it for the entire Wired world to see, then report the offending bas*tard! Pete Cash: Not too mention, having multiple accounts isnt allowed. Anyone caught doing so, will be banned D3cyph3r: Cash, you're right, however not everyone is getting caught. Nor are all the underage kids on here. D3cyph3r: I realize that. I also realize the difficulty. I manage an IT Security Consulting practice and have been writing and speaking on Internet Ethics for over 10 years. I would never have seriously contemplated my example above, it was in fun! My police friends, however, do it all the time (as wiredclub admins may come to learn in time). I'm not a 16 year old girl; I just play one on the Internet!! otcclass: I found the best way so far not to get PM's from pervs is just to not allow anyone but your friends to be able to pm you and only allow your friends to be on your friends list.. always check out each and every person prior to putting them on your friends list.. so far this has worked for me... *lol* Dreah: I can see not allowing anyone but your friends on your list- but what about ppl like me who are new to the site and dont know anyone yet? Im tryin to meet new people... but not creepy ppl. Its super annoying when ppl try sending msgs- and you try to start a NORMAL convo and they have other expectations... then they try downin you. Its like.. grow up! goodness! TransparentEchoes: Best way to rid a perve is to shove him back in his place or block them. Unfortunately there are a lot of perves around >.> Miss-Valo: Lmao , i tell them i'm spongebob , and they leave Or also i tell them i'm a 40 year old man looking for a gay man , they freak out. They also freak out if you act more pervert than them , it pisses them off and leave |
