Hi boydy123, Do you have a copy of the email you sent BeboInquiry? If so, forward it to my attention at admin[at]connectsafely.org.
Happy 2010,
Maureen

Hi, It takes about a week to investigate, so expect to hear back from Bebo by next Tuesday or Wednesday.
Best,
Maureen

Welcome back boydy123, I'm sorry this happened again, but not surprised. Once someone copies a photo online they can repost it again and again. The best thing to do is report the photo to Bebo. (Your friend should make the report.) Bebo should contact you or remove the photo within about a week after receiving the report. (If you don't hear back by then, let us know.)
Good luck,
Maureen

Welcome cchristy, We always love getting an educator's perspective. You mentioned in another post that you're a high school teacher. Do you interact with your students on MySpace or Facebook?
Thanks for the post,
Maureen

Good morning!
I just joined this forum - didn't know it existed actually. I'm taking an on-line course, and it was recommended that I join this website.
Has your problem been resolved? I hope so! What a terrible feeling it must be for you.
I have to admit that especially as a teacher I am reluctant to put a lot out there. I don't want to give anyone a chance to come into my life. My privacy is important to me. And we all know how frequently teachers wind up in the media - for the wrong reasons.
Feel free to write back and let me know how you made out.
Cristina

Hi Kylief, I'm sorry to hear this. You can click the "Report abuse" link on the profile or send an email to imposterreport@myspace.com. Include a salute with your report (a picture of you holding a handwritten sign with your real Friend ID).
If the profile hasn't been deleted within about a week, contact us again and we'll email our contact at MySpace. (We need you to go through the proper channels first.)
Good luck,
Maureen

Kiwi14, I'm sorry you haven't heard back from MySpace. Send the salute to my attention at admin(at)connectsafely.org, and I'll forward it to our contact. (Still, we can't make any guarantee about the outcome since we're not part of MySpace.)
Thx,
Maureen
