Using Skype moderatorss to Harass me after I block...

Okay this has never happened to me before so I have absolutely no idea what to do and am absolutely dumbfounded.
I ran a website where this girl found me and started contacting me repeatedly. I finally decided she's friendly and just want someone to talk to and gave her my Skype for her to contact. Since adding me to Skype, every one of our conversations were initiated by her and we usually just chat friendly like any typical conversation.
Then last time we chatted, and spoke about a week or so ago, she suddenly became very sexual and wrote and said a lot of sexual things with me. Afterward, I noticed her username amberier_17 ends with 17, and recalled that she's just going to university but still in high school. Though most of my friend sin high school before graduating were 18 or 19, I suddenly realized that she may not be over 18 yet and I don't think we ever put that to question.
So yesterday (April 1st), she says hi to me again and initiated conversation with me again. I told her my thoughts and said that we can't continue with any sexual conversation unless she's over 18, and asked her if she is. She refuses to answer me, and goes on passing rude remarks to me saying how her friend (im not sure who, and shes never mentioned friend before) says that she should stop contacting me etc as if I'm a bad guy I guess? At the end she told me I could go to hell if this or that and I was beginning to get very unnerved why she wouldn't even tell me whether she's over 18 or not.
So I blocked her then, with no intention of letting her contact me again. But today I was approached by a moderator who said they received a Report, from someone anonymouse, that I "solicited" personal information from them, and that violates the agreement and policy of Skype use. This moderator added me 30 minutes after I blocked her finding her refusing to tell me if she was over 18, doing the right thing, without asking her for exactly how old she is. If she said she do not want to tell me, then ok. if she stop contacting me, then ok. She did not do either, prompting me to conclude that she may very well be under 18, and to block her as I was beginning to feel both fooled, having responded to someone I shouldn't be talking to and don't even know, and being made to feel horrible as she kept repeating how her 'friend' think she should stop talking to me (as if we talk often at all).
I use Skype to mostly talk to either my ex (who is very nice and sweet to me and helps me out with a lot of school work even now), or other friends from school I Skype to do homework or assignment with. So I know for sure it can't be anyone else I know.
But after having blocked this individual, I am both reached by her (through a moderator), and her revenge in getting me banned from using Skype again. If this is not outright harssment or abuse of the system then I don't know what is. However I have no idea how to report this in detail at all so I am reporting it here seeing that moderators do address people's privacy and security issues here.
Right now I sadly feel almost like a victim, of indirect harssment manipulated by someone that wants to get back at me for blocking them. I feel like my privacy and safety is threatened by simply trying to do the right thing, and she got close to having me lose my way to stay in touch with people close to me using Skype that I always have used because of this eratic and vengeful stranger.
I hope to not to be harassed (personally or through indirect channels like with moderators) by this person again (especially with false accusations so obvious in our chat logs) or people this person incorporates to deliver inconveniences into my life and threaten the communication I have with people I know simply for blocking her and asking whether she's over 18 (not detailed age). But I don't know if it is even possible. I do hope the right person comes accross this and perhaps look into this person. If she's under 18, i think it's a bit inappropriate to get into and initate sexual conversations accross Skype and with strangers after seeking them out online. That's just what I think. Bottom line is I just want to be free from further harassments from this person.
Thanks for taking your time in reading this venting!

afaik, there is no such thing as "skype moderators" based on how you described them in your post.  Most likely, it just another possibly fake user (scammer/spammer) just like that girl (I also think they are related or possibly the same user).  I suggest that you report both that girl at that so-called moderator to [email protected], then blocked and remove them from your contact list.
I also think Skype doesn't communicate with their users via Instant Messages or calls, they usually send emails to users' registered email address.

    Note: The harassment calls started since Oct-2010. I had discovered these harassment calls were made by this Skype user. I am able to provide call history made by this Skype user from Mar-2012 till Sep-2012.
    This is a serious violation of the Skype's Terms of Service. Please investigate and take appropriate actions against this issue. Your quick response is very much appreciated. Thank you.

    I have a similar problem. I recently reinstated Skype on my iPad. I am able to sign in, to check my profile page and to check on my credit (I have about $30 US on it). But, I am unable to bring up a dial pad, nor a phone logo. I should add, I do have another copy of Skype on my iPad, under a different spelling of my name, that works perfectly well. I want to be able to contact to Skype using the re-instated account (which I had created earlier in error) so as to use up the existing credit, as I've learned that I can't combine the two accounts. What can I do? Can anything be done?

  • Ipad camera app not working after update 7.1.1 and using skype on video call

    Hello,
    i updated my mini ipad to ios 7.1.1
    then i used skype for video call...
    It worked fine for a few minutes then the front camera stopped working
    Stopping skype and starting the camera app, i saw that the front camera was no more working...black screen
    instead rear camera was working...
    Then i tried to reset the device (pressing sleep and home button) and uninstalled skype
    Now front camera works more or less, but the camera app seems always almost freezed, i cant change easily the options,
    i cant record a video, only camera for snapshots is working...
    any suggestion?
    is it possible to uninstall the camera app and try to reinstall it?
    Thanks!

    Updating to iOS 7.1.2 doesnt solving problem at all, even my front camera also begin not working after I did that. Everything's OK when I using rear cam, but just freeze and blurred on screen while switched to the front cam. And have to resetting to go back to rear cam. My iPhone4's camera itself, rear and front, are in good performance before. And I've tried anything such as reset, hard reset, restoring, setting up as new device, etc, without any result since then. If some people say it was about hardware issued, I thing so weird because too many same hardware problems coincident happened at the same moment. So I just only hope the Apple will listening and solving all problems wisely. Thanks b4.

  • Airport extreme signal drops when/after using Skype

    I used Skype-to-Skype twice yesterday and both times the wifi signal from the Airport (802.11 n /square base station) started to attentuate and then completely disappeared. In both cases, I had to turn off and re-power the Airport base station to get my wifi working again and to maintain full strength. Regular internet usage has not caused this problem. We do not use Skype often and, of course, I could be mistaking coincidence for causality but this problem has not happened before. I get my high-speed internet from my cable company; perhaps they are doing something to discourage Skype/VOIP???

    I am having the same problems, I was using a standard TP-link router and upgraded to AEBS, now it takes up to 7 tries to get a stable (?) connection with the AEBS. If anyone has any ideas it would be great.

  • While using skype on my iphone 4s i found after an hour or so the iphone was very warm and actually bit hot. Is this normal for other users too?

    While using Skype on my iphone 4s i found the phone was heated up. It was very warm. I had used for 1 hour or so. Is this normal for other users aswell ?
    And also sometimes when i get the call no matter how much i try to slide the cursor, it doesn't move. I miss those calls. It looks like it is freezed. Has this
    happened to others too?

    *Update*
    I thought I had found the offending 'app' namely "Songpop."
    I regularly use "Songpop" on my phone late at night via my wifi connection.
    All enteries on my phonebill are at midnight (even though I have a data allowance it was excluded from allowance). I switched 3G off on Friday, played "Songpop" at midnight and at the exact time I got a "Server Error" message.
    I posted a message on the "Songpop" support forum.At first they said this was a problem relating to my ISP.
    I have spoken to my ISP and asked if there are connection drops at the time I have been billed (ie to establish if my wifi dropped and 3G kicked in without my knowledge) and have been advised that there aren't any connection drops at that time.
    "Songpop" have now responded that "This is an issue to take up with Apple Support"  see: http://support.songpop.fm/songpop/topics/playing_songpop_on_phone_via_wifi_but_i ncurring_download_data_charges_for_3g_useage?utm_content=topic_link&utm_medium=e mail&utm_source=reply_notification
    Hopefully someone at Apple can respond ....

  • Why can I not make video calls using Skype?

    I'm really baffled. I have a month old MacBook Air. I use Skype daily for work and personal business. Never had a problem until this evening. I went to make a video call and Skype was not linked with the camera - there was no option to make a video call and when I went into Preferences, it said I had no camera. I then used FaceTime - person I was calling also had FaceTime, so it wasn't an issue - but I've now spent an hour trying to solved the problem, including logging in and out of Skype, closing the app and reinstalling, all to no avail. The camera functions fine with FT and other apps - why will it not sync up with Skype after it's worked fine? Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance.

    See this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.

  • When using Skype my IPad sounds like ocean. This is not a problem when I am on FaceTime or using other apps with sound.  Recently updated to newest IOS 7. First there was no sound for Kype and found that had to turn microphone sound on.

    When using Skype my IPad 2 now sounds like the ocean and I can barely here my contact.  This happened recently after IOS7 update. I did turn the microphone on for Skype as it was required after update.  Now my sound is terrible but only a problem when using Skype video call.  It is okay for FaceTime.

    Thank you!  Resetting resolved the issue with terrible sound when trying to use skype.  Sounds much better! 
    I am not sure what all changed when reset was applied to settings --- assume it defaults back to basic settings.  I have no idea what I had customized, so will slowly figure out.  I have noticed several things.  So far I had to add back my wallpaper and reenter password to get back on my wi-fi. 
    At least SKYPE is now audible.

  • Mac crash when using Skype with webcam

    Today I used skype for videocalling on my brand new MBP 15". After 20 minutes the laptop crashed and gave me the "hold down the power button" screen.
    20 minutes later he crashed again. In the last 20 minutes I only used skype (1 videocall) and safari (google & wikipedia).
    Is there a way I can 'solve' this problem? (install a plugin, or something?)
    thanks in advance,

  • Skype problems with Airport Extreme after update

    I use Skype to call regular phones and landlines. For over a year now it has worked well with my Airport Extreme, however, I noticed that around the same time I updated my Airport utility to 5.5.2 and Mac OS X update on 1/7/11 I am having problems with audio getting scrambled, the person on the other end dropping out, and my voice dropping out of their calls and the sound of me "being in a long tunnel," as they describe it. If I plug the ethernet directly into my computer there is no problem so I know it is the Airport base station.
    I have tried plugging and unplugging the base station and I had comcast reset my cable modem but nothing seems to be working. I have 12 mbps internet so I know it is not a bandwidth problem.
    Please help! Thank you!

    Indeed I have the same problem.  I ended up buying a new router because I thought mine was malfunctioning.  After buying the latest generation Airport Extreme, turns out it's having the same problem.  I agree that it was not a problem until 5.5.2.  Also, I use YouSendIt constantly and it also chokes the Airport Extreme.  It appears to happen in scenarios of high bandwidth usage.
    5.5.3 maybe coming soon?

  • I have a MACMINI and use Skype daily,

    I have a Mac Mini and I use Skype daily, but after a few minutes it starts to echo badly and make noises, How do I control this? what do I have to buy to stop the noise?

    my mic is only on a 3 foot cord I have tried to place the mic as far from speakers as possible, but I STILL need the mic near computer for other party on Skype to hear me.
    I tried getting earphones, but Apple store only has Ipod compatible earphones and mics for the computer but they are actual microphones for Karaoke or music purposes

  • Nokia N8 Video Chat using Skype

    Please provide video chat facility using skype in Nokia N8.

    Have you used fring? looks like a 3rd grader made it, and operates much like spyware. its terrible. I see people been saying just wait, patience blah blah, that was dec 2010, a full year ago. this n8 is almost obsolete the way the trends are going. i have a feeling skype dumped all efforts for providing video on s3. but that is thier right, they are a 3rd party.
    actually for nokia this is pathetic,i have long been a nokia supporter, they always market good product but the full potential of those products are seen a year or more after launch through fw updates. its nonsense, even my n95 had front camera, so does my n8. yet no decent app to run it online. we have video call thru 3g here in canada but its expensive.
    apple comes with a front camera and bundled it with facetime in the SAME stroke, no hesitation, no sitting around waiting when i can realize my devices full capability. really nokia for a multi billion dollar organization, listen to your customers, this has been going on for a while. atleast make the current fanbase happy ie n8 users, or we will refuse to buy n9 (which does not have a native video call app either) and forget about lumia, no ffc altogether. but, which better than paying for the feature and not being able to use.
    if i could i would make an app myself, but its your responsibility, your product, and your fw. i see nokia is tying many aspects to facebook these days, well facebook chat on pc has webcam support, here's a tip: work with that!

  • How do I reinstall iChat, how do PC users video iChat with me, and should I just use skype?

    1. I deleted iChat awhile ago by mistake. I searched ichat in Macintosh HD, and the only result was iChat the application file, but its icon is a faded out IWeb icon. When I click on it, it just bounces on my dock, until it disappears and an error message pops up stating it quit unexpectedly. I tried dragging the result to my desktop then redragging it into my Applications folder, but the same thing still happens (faded out iWeb icon instead of iChat icon, bounces, quits, error message). I also tried installing the iChat AV (forgot which version) and iChat Update 1.0 Universal, both of which said I had to have 10.4. I have 10.5.8. Also, if this makes any difference, the current faded out iChat in my Applications folder says its version 4.0.9. I do not have my reinstall CD, and do not want to call support and have them send me one. Considering I bought my macbook in late 2008, and my warranty is up, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't help me anyways. I also do not know of anyone who has a mac so the sharing option can be crossed offed. Is there a downloadable version of iChat for 10.5. users?
    2. If I somehow managed to reinstall a working iChat, how would PC users connect to me and vide chat?
    3. Should I just use skype? Would i have to download anything? Is skype video chat free? What are the differences between iChat and skype, and which one is better?
    Thank you for your time!

    Hi,
    Reinstall Instructions
    Be SURE to Download (Manually) and Install the COMBO version of the last Update to the OS you did as iChat will need to be Updated (Software Update will think it is already done and you need to Fool it)
    Re 2).
    In theory it is just a question oif you using a valid AIM name in iChat
    This could be one registered with AIM or one from @mac.com or MobileMe if paid for or a current trial.
    In Practice it can need a bit of tweaking at both ends
    They Need to allow the AIM App through the Windows firewall as an Exception (AS with any Non Microsoft app)
    They may also need to turn off the "Real Time" option that does not work to iChat and effects A/V chats as well.  (It is Sending as you type). It will be in one of the Menus of their Budy List.
    Post back for more if you get stuck.
    Re 3)
    Skype does offer free Video Chat and some people resort to it when iChat to AIM does not work.
    It is free (At present - and you only pay for the Connection to and from real phones)
    Skype was bought by Microsoft within the last week and things may change at some point in the future.
    iChat has better Video
    Audio depends on the capabilities of your Mac and their PC but is probably about equal.
    Connection methods differ and iChat's Video and Audio Chats are technically more secure (you can in fact log out of the Buddy List as they adre Peer-to-Peer where as Skype uses a little bit of everyone's bandwidth (Between 40 and 100 other End Users)
    Other options are here
    Video options are from 8 onwards
    Mebeam is now called Koowy. (Video Chatting in a Web Browser using Flash)

    Google Do a Plug-in for Intels to allow you to use their Web Mail Page Chat Option

  • Long sign-in time using skype

    Hi!
    I re-installed Leopard (10.5.1) on my Power Mac G5 and I'm using Skype 2.6.0.184. When signing in Skype takes about 15 minutes to finish the sign-in process. This is not a network issue, because unplugging the network cable does not change the sign-in behavior.
    Does anybody know what slows down the sign-in process?
    Thanks in advance.
    Gerhard

    Hi,
    Did you mean after switch to local user account, it still took long time to sign in?
    Firstly please disable unnecessary startup program:
    1. Open Task manager;
    2. Jump to Startup tab, right click to disable the unnecessary applications one by one.
    If the issue still persists, refresh your computer for test:

  • [HELP] I use Skype from two computers and i notice...

    Sorry for reposting this topic, but it didn't appear on the forum.
    Hey there.
    I use skype from two computers.
    Last week i blocked a contanct from computer1 and yesterday i unblocked it from the same computer.
    So i noticed that after i unblocked this contact, it still appears at my homepage with his picture, info and everything, BUT only from computer1.
    When i use computer2, this contact appears at my contacts, but only with his skype name (the one he uses to log in) and not with his display name. Also, i can't see his picture or any other information. It just appears offline, with his log-in name and with no picture. That's all.
    So what's going on? Why can i see everything normally from computer1 but not from computer2?
    P.S.1 99% he blocked me too, but i have no idea whether he unblocked me or not.
    P.S.2 I know my english is horrible, sorry for that.
