Can Skype send contact requests without your knowl...

My daughter received a contact request from a man that I know. He is denying any knowledge or that he sent it. Does skype ever send contact requests without your knowledge? For example, could it access your email contacts and then search for linked skype accounts and send them contact requests without you knowing? Need to know if this is possible before reporting this person. Thank you.

Hello
1. Absolutely NOT!
2. No. These are private to the users. You should consider reporting this matter to the Police without delay.

I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

  • Can we send a request without knowing the actual url..

    Tomcat is running at the back.
    I know the port no on which the server is running now.
    Can we send a request to the server even if we dont know the exact url
    for example I developed a form which authenticates the user, after authenticating the url will be some thing like this
    http://localhost:8090/temp/AdminRegister?uname=user?pass=user123now can the user login even without knowing the exact username and password by manipulating the url..

    it is your own risk to your applets to communicate with DBs because nobody suggests that. I agree with the Javascript story and the frames. It can be done but i thought he wanted to do that in one single page. And finally, i dont trust frames that much. I have seen many times the 404 error found on pages and because i use dynamic pages i have to make connection for each frame. and with throusands users being online it is bad for my server (traffic).

    Sharing an Apple ID is never recommended for these reasons.
    They can create their own: http://appleid.apple.com and you can add them at the addresses they use for their ID.
    Sharing an Apple ID is not recommended because all of your data gets merged and when it gets deleted from one device, it deletes from them all, such as Contacts.

  • Send Contact Request

    I cannot use the "Send Contact Request" feature and can't find anything on this problem anywhere. Does anyone know how I can resolve this frustrating issue?
    Let me know.

    I am having this problem as well. The "help" says:
    Report an issue with a Game Center customer
    If you encounter an issue with another customer, including invite spam, inappropriate avatars, or other offensive behavior:
    iOS: View their profile, tap '•••', and select Report a Problem.
    OS X: Tap or click their Game Center nickname to view their profile and select Report a Problem.
    ...but as you know, it's not possible to view a stranger's game profile (unless I want to sift through the leaderboards containing thousands of users, perhaps?)  Also, I don't see any instructions from Apple about how to access the Game Center through OS X on my desktop computer (is that even possible?)  I thought I'd check there, since the interface might be different.
    Our problem is that one user is signing up for EVERY open game slot they can find on our app (we are the publisher - the app developer says their hands are tied, since they cannot ban users, or even know who any user is, so I assume this is a Game Center issue).  It's ruining the experience for other players of our game on the iOS app, so we'd like to address this.  For all we know, this jerk is ruining people's experience of other games as well.
    I did try issuing a friend request to this person (since that's the ONLY way to send someone a message through Game Center - I asked them to call or email us).  I guess if they accept my friend request, I'll be able to report them, but, given the extremely limited nature of ALL of Apple help, I'll probably be directed to choose from a short list of issues that have nothing to do with the actual nature of the abusive behavior.  Thanks Apple, I just LOVE the way you second-guess what your customers need.  You're spot-on every time [heavy sarcasm].  There isn't even a forum to ask about Game Center!
    I see nobody has been able to help you on this issue.

  • Skype sent out contact request without permission?...

    Alright so I contacted support over this and they just said they couldn't answer my question because they didn't know. I guess I'm not searching for answers anymore but just seeing if this has happened to anyone else or if someone can find some error I made to make this happen ... Thanks for your time in reading.
    SO... Awhile back I deleted my ex from Skype and blocked him. I would like to mention I had him blocked numerous times but he could still send a contact request...... Anyways... I had him deleted and blocked and then three days ago, randomly out of NOWHERE... I look at my contacts and he's in them- saying that IVE sent a contact request to HIM.................... And it offered the option to resend it. I flipped out so hard because it really does make me look crazy if he got a contact request from me............ Out of nowhere ....
    I can only hope it was a one sided thing and he never got the receiving end of that message. I had him blocked but nowhere in the chat near 'resend request' did it say 'this contact is blocked' as I seem to remember it doing before.
    Ugh.. This situation had me so fearful that it would start like, spamming contact requests or later on doing something else because if Skype support can't explain it, then im just gonna just go ahead and say my account was possessed. To try and counter this, I deleted the account today and made a new one.
    So yeah, anyone have any similar experience? ... Did I do something critically wrong that somehow did this? Is it possible /he/ was the one sending the request? (OFC that doesn't make sense because it was giving me the option to resend and saying it was pending.) also, if it's pending does that mean he hasn't accepted and the request was waiting there or could it be rejected and still say pending?
    Thanks for your time xoxoxox ♡

    Today I had a new person added to my contacts list, (not recent conversations), that I did not approve. I have had people I don't know randomly request to be added but this is the first time where someone was added without my consent. 
    First off, I would like to report this individual since he has obviously circumvented Skype security features. He is soliciting his S. African business through his profile. How do I go about reporting this because aside from this forum on security I can't find a way to report on your website. I have read several other users post similar stories dating back a few years and I am surprised this is still an issue although I am grateful I have never had this happen before.  
    Here is the information on the unsolicited contact:

  • Can I send a book WITHOUT a receipt in the box?

    I am sending lots of books directly to friends and family for the holidays and do NOT want a receipt in the box. (So cheesy!) How can I request that?

    I would be interested to find out how you are sending books directly to your friends and family. I thought that when you purchase a product through iPhoto it is linked to your Apple ID...thus automatically sending the product to that users addy.
    However, if you have a way around this, you may just want to e-mail apple support and see if they can assist you on this.

  • Send a request without leaving the current page?

    Hi,
    I got a question here:
    In a jsp page, when the user changed a option in a drop down box, I want the page to send a request to the server doing some operations on the database(probably use a bean) but still stay at the current page. How can I do that?
    Another simple question is:
    There're 10 elements/components in a FORM, and the user is changing the options in a drop down box (one of the 10 elements/components). Is there any way I can know which elements/components the user is playing with ?
    Thanks in advance!

    it is your own risk to your applets to communicate with DBs because nobody suggests that. I agree with the Javascript story and the frames. It can be done but i thought he wanted to do that in one single page. And finally, i dont trust frames that much.

  • Can Skype send me call logs

    I would like to know if there is any way I can get a list of all the calls I have made using Skype out over a 12 month period.

    Skype doesn't know what your password is
    if you have forgotten your password you can only request a password reset, but that doesn't stop you from using the same password again
    the reset 'token' will be sent to the email address you registered when you signed up for Skype

  • In ActionScript 2.0 , How can I send HTTP request and get the response in JSON format.

    I am using ActionScript 2.0 for my app development. I have checked XML and LoadVars class. These classes by default send/receive data either in XML or name/value pair format. I want to send data in JSON format and receive the response in JSON format. How can I achieve this behavior using AS2.0. I have noticed that AS3.0 has the capabilities to do so. My client platform doesn't support AS3.0. Can anybody suggest a way to achieve this?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Atlast I am able to find the solution for this problem. In the end solutioin is very simple.
    Following steps will help in sending request in JSON format.
    1. extend LoadVars class
    2. override toString method. (It should return JSON format )
    3. Use subclass to send the request.

  • Can you send ipod back without the earphones?

    Im going to send my ipod to apple to check it out but do you need to include everything else like the usb and earphones when you send it?

    From the iPod Service FAQ: "Please do not send any accessories with your iPod as they will not be returned." Apple will return only an iPod, so you'll lose anything else you send to them.
