Afghanistan and Unwanted Messages

I receive about 3 different messages from stranger attempting to scam daily! I've already mentioned this here on the forum, and I'm reporting every single one. An earlier email mentioned a Garry Robinson (from 2012), and one of the users had that username as well. Mostly the messages I get mention Afghanistan soldiers' names, but I also get these messages trying to solicit conversations from people/men who most likely are using fraudulent identities. I'm getting annoyed at having to report this so many times a day! What exactly happens after the report goes through? How do I get these people to simply stop contacting me?

unfortunately, there is no option yet to block/filter those truly annoying contact requests, regardless if they are requests from legitimate users or from possible spammers/scammers. The only things you can do at the moment is indeed to ignore and block them (and report them to [email protected]).  The Privacy Settings in Skype can only prevent/stop unwanted calls/instant messages from non-contacts, not contact requests.
Typo in e-mail address corrected.

  • Unwanted messages when I'm on internet

    When I 'm on the internet at different sites I get messages from unwanted sources saying stuff like your the 45 winner or answer this question to win an ipad or watch or download. I was told it was related to having adobe flash and reader so I took them off and still got these messages so I put them back on. Anyway I still get these unwanted messages I've run Norton 360 full scan and Malaware full scan and they don't help. what else can I do?

    It has nothing to do with Reader. It's a pop-up advertisement built by the people that created the website you are visiting.

  • Unwanted messages in forms

    I have forms 6i. When I click a button it loops through and runs various reports. Some of these reports call a package which performs various DML inserts. During this process I am getting some unwanted messages such as 'NO changes to save'.
    I verified and there are no hard coded messages. Is there any way to suppress these kind of messages?
    Thanks

    At form level create a trigger
    ON-ERROR
    cust and paste the following and the problem will be solved.
    IF (ERROR_TYPE = 'FRM' and ERROR_CODE = 40401) THEN
    -- Error 40401 : No changes to make
    null;
    END IF;

  • When I login, all of my desktop items are gone, the "Finder" icon is bouncing and a message asking to restore windows is blinking but unresponsive. I can't exit out of it. What do I do? I've tried force quitting, and it doesn't get rid of it.

    Hey sunnyday7!
    Here is an article that can help you address this issue:
    OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3411
    Additional Information
    OS X automatically relaunches the Finder when it is quit. If the Finder is unresponsive, use Force Quit to relaunch it. Select Finder in the Force Quit Window or Dock, then click Relaunch.

  • Running 10.6.8. Trying to open and view contents of a CD (of an MRI) and getting message 'This program cannot be run in DOS mode' Is there a way? Thanks for the help.

    Running 10.6.8. Trying to open and view contents of a CD (of an MRI) and getting message 'This program cannot be run in DOS mode' Is there a way? Thanks for the help.

    Go to the support site for the provider of the MRI software.
    Sounds like it windows/PC. I have ran across that for the CDs that veterinarians provide for digital x-rays.
    I would try on a PC or on yuur Mac with Windows via BootCamp or a virtual machine like VirtualBox

  • Windows Vista, Itunes 10.7, ipod Classic, scan and fix message - why?

    I am trying to connect my wife's Ipod Classic to our Windows Vista computer.  I get a Scan and Fix Message for the Ipod from Windows.  I don't let it scan and click continue.  Itunes is frozen and won't recognize the ipod.  This has happened since upgrading to Itunes 10.7.  Also Itunes is choppy in playing all video content since upgrading to Itunes 10.7.
    I have checked system requirements and driver upgrades.  So far I have no fix.  One site recommended turning off WiFi sync for all devices in Itunes.  But of course the device must be connected, and mine won't connect.  All my itunes video is languishing.  :-(

    Wi-Fi sync won't apply since you have an iPod Classic and it doesn't contain any Wi-Fi hardware.
    To get rid of the Scan and Fix error, see this page: http://www.yourlocaltech.com/resolve-vista-scan-and-fix-error-when-plugging-in-i pod-or-other-devices/
    We'll start there for now.

  • Migration, I put it on a USB drive. How do I install it on my new computer so my contacts and ALL messages come across?

    I used the Easy Transfer application and put Thunderbird on a USB. I am now on the "new computer" and want to load Thunderbird that has all of the contacts and ALL of the past messages folders etc. How do I do this? I tried it once and there were no contacts and only messages from this week!

    did you use the easy transfer wizard to reinstall the files?
    Make sure it has put them in
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\local and C:\Users\[username]\AppData\remote.
    Make that
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\roaming

  • Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?

    Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?
    During a two weeks process, little by little I notice my phoe doesn't ring when I get a phone call.  So Far I have missed 22 calls that I am aware of.  Moreover, the phone does not alert me when I get a text message.  Sometimes I receive notice the next day that I received a call or a text message. 

    Follow the basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide... reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

  • IPhone 4 iOS 5.0.1 stops receiving calls and text messages

    Hi all,
    My iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1) suddenly stopped receiving calls and text messages. However, I'm still able to send them.
    The workaround for fixing this issue is to make an hard reset to the iPhone.
    This only occured with 5.0.1 version. It's very annoying because I'm not able to know if it's working or not (I can only suppose that it's not working when I'm a long period without receiving calls/messages)
    Do you know how to solve this ?
    Thanks in advance!

    First, who really cares what you do?  I certainly don't, and I doubt the vast majority of users on this forum don't either.  Ridiculous statements like that just make you look stupid.
    Second, this is a user to user technical support forum.  I saw a lot of whine here, not a question.  What is your technical support question?

  • IPhone fails receiving calls and text messages

    Hi everyone, here is my problem.
    I have an iPhone 4 32GB. It was on iOs 5.1 (always worked perfectly) untill few days ago I have upgraded to iOs 7.1.
    The problem after the upgrade is that phone calls or sms messages fails to be received. Strange thing is I can receive at times calls from cellphones, but I don't receive calls from land line numbers. And text messages arrive all at once after hours.
    I have restored the phone in DFU mode twice, set up as new phone , tried a hard reset, network reset... nothing worked. It still fails to receive phone calls and sms messages.
    Before you ask, the "don't disturb" is disabled.
    I live in Italy and have a contract with TIM, i spoke with their cistomer service and according to them there's nothing more i can do on my end.
    Any idea?
    Thanks
