Somebody posing as me on Skype

Hello Skype community,
I have a rather urgent issue that I need assistance with. I've been getting messages for the past few days on my personal Facebook account about somebody posing as me on Skype. Now, I've had a Skype account for a while but I don't think I've ever even used it. The people who have contacted me have said that the account is using a username that is not the same as my original username, so I don't believe that my account has been hacked or phished. But how do I report somebody for posing as me, and how do I prove that I am the real one? I've been told that this person is sexually harrassing my real friends as well as random people they have found online, so this is very concerning to me.
I can't seem to find any way to directly contact customer support, so this has been throwing me for a loop. Hopefully this gets me somewhere.
I believe the fake account in question is EDITED, and if I recall, my original account's username is EDITED.
Regards,
Trey Cook

Сори, я не говорю по болгарски, но примерно догадываюсь в чём заключается твоя проблема. закинь свой скайп ник в гугл-сёрьч(google search) я так узнала, что мой ник кто то другой исползует без моего ведома. Я послала принт скрин этого безобразия в сапорт скайпа(можешь перейти по ссылке из 4 сообщения этого форума) (Сапорт спид дэйтинга я так и не нашла) И нескол-ко дней спустя - мой профиль удалили со веб страницы спид дейтнга. больше никаких назйливых звонков и сообщений!!!

Did somebody attempted to use my skype contact?

I just got a number of messages from Skype and my Email. Did someone just used my skype details to make some sort of payment?
I was offline on that day and I'm not arabic, I have no clue what they meant but I did run a google translator and it it some sort of payment.

Here are some suggestions on how to know if the email you received is really from Skype or a fake one -

on the other hand, Skype doesn't send notifications, updates, news, etc via IM.

Skype name connnected to country

I like to know how it is possible that my skype name (and I know that there is not somebody else with the same skype name) appears in 2 countries ( Romanian and Dutch) I am living in the Netherlands so thats correct and i have visit Romania and used skype there but that was already a few month ago , but under searching it still says Romenia. Is it possible that somebody in Romenia is using my account ? Thanks

IMHO, it can't hurt to change your password for the account that you can access, ASAP.

Hello,
Can somebody help me fixing the Skype App on my Lumia 1520, when I try to start it it crashes some times while loading the App and other Times while Signing In and also on the Skype Homepage.
I have unistalled and Reinstall it a lot of times

I have Windows 8.1 Update
OS Version 8.10.14219.341
Lumia Denim
Please Help!

Welcome to our community, dnajeradls. Have you also experienced this issue before updating it to Lumia Denim update? Does it happen only with the Skype app? Let's troubleshoot it by rebooting the phone. Press and hold both the volume down and the power keys for 10-15 seconds. Next, update all the system apps. Go to Store > (...) > settings > check for updates and then let us know the outcome.

2 skype #s one account how to use them

help anyone ? please.
Just purcahsed a new skype number under same already existing account, now have 2 numbers and want to use both, how can I do this ? perhaps switching fron one to another ? opening a new account ? but can I link the number ? Thank you

You give out your Skype number (either one or both) to whoever you want to have them and when somebody calls either number your Skype will ring. Basically both numbers point to your Skype account.

Can't view shared images via browser

I use an old version of Skype, and I do not want to update. Whenever somebody sends an image via Skype, I see this message:
<user> sent a photo.
This device doesn't support Skype's new photo sharing features yet, but you can still view it in your browser here:
https://api.asm.skype.com/s/i?[...]
When I go to the link, it asks me to log into Skype, when I login, I see a page saying "Sorry, we were unable to open this photo. Try signing into Skype again.". No matter how many times I log in again, it still shows this message.
Please help.
Thank you.

If the recipient is also using one of the latest Skype versions (on Windows it must be 6.21 or later), a preview of this image will be displayed in the chat window.
On older Skype versions, only a link (similar to the one as you are seeing) to this image saved on the Cloud server is displayed.
Theoretically, clicking on this link and signing in with your Skype account should display this image in your browser.
If this was not the case, then the image might have been corrupted or there is an issue with your browser. What browser have you used to open this link?
I use Google Chrome, the latest beta version (40.0.2214.85 beta-m). I find this unlikely that this particular image is corrupted, because I can view it with Skype on my phone, and this issue happens with all images shared via Skype, as far as I can tell.
I have not tried to open the image links in Chrome, but it works with both Firefox and Internet Explorer.
Make sure that you have the latest IE version installed on your computer and try to open this link in IE.

Login Notifications, Email Alert

I need login notifications just like facebook. I want to know if somebody else is using my skype account. is this too much to ask. This is for everybody's peace of mind. A much needed security please.

We are installing a PC at a remote location where users have been known to not always play by the rules. The PC will automatically log into a locked down standard user, but there are some users that might want to access the Admin account. We have auditing enabled, but would also like to get an email alert when someone attempts to log into the admin account.I was able to stumble across this article on HowToGeek: http://www.howtogeek.com/123568/how-to-get-email-notifications-whenever-someone-logs-into-your-compu...It explains how to get an email when someone logs in, but not for failed login attempts.The PC is running Windows 7 Pro in a workgroup setup.

Skype blocks when somebody videocalls me

I am getting mad about a problem: When I videocall somebody, it works without problems. When a friend videocalls me and I accpet, then Skype blocks and I have to switch to offline and wait 1 minute until the call disappears. When I am lucky, I can videocall the same person when I go online again.
What do I have to do that I can accept a videocall from a friend and not getting blocked ?
Thanks
