TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Dear Sir/Madam/Ms,

re: TAGGED.COM

Lately, I did not download any personal photos onto my profile at Tagged. The only images I uploaded were those I included in comments I made to spammers and scammers profiles who were bombarding my message box! These tags and comments I sent were intended to warn people about the illegal intention of the messages I was recieving! I obtained such images from Tagged.com or from the profiles of other Tagged.com users (thinking that these therefore did not violate Tagged.com complex rules as they had previously been checked!)

The reason I took it as a personal crusade against spammers and spammers was due to:

1) Although I reported the profiles concerned to Tagged, no action was taken by them (even though I had let a few days pass after I reported the scamers and spammers). I therfore felt frustrated!

2) Some of the messages I was recieving were quite serious! One of them had the profile and photos of a famous US general (link id: http://www.tagged.com/photo_gallery.html?uid=5428234405) and one was from the United Nations Secreteriat! The messages had money transfer in mind! Due to the seriousness of these messages I felt an obligation to warn others!

In the case of the scammer posing as a high profile US general, I had even reported the matter to [email protected] (US BODY) as I considerd the message he/she/they sent was quite serious (I am including such message here (see below).

Now I admit I may have used strong language when I replied to scammers and spammers, but I never anticipated Tagged.com reply to all this!! They replied by cancelling my account informing me that one of the images I uploaded violated their terms! I am attaching the offending image here!

I think that this case shows that Tagged.com would rather protect the scammers and spammers than their users!

I like Tagged.com to reinstate my account immediately. I am willing to help with providing more information on the spam and scams I was recieving!

Regards

"A photo you have posted to Tagged has been reviewed and found to violate Tagged's terms of use. Your Tagged account has been cancelled and can no longer be accessed."

This is what I woke up to this morning. I haven't posted any photos, with the exception of my main profile photo which was just some airplanes. What's going on??? I put ALOT of time into my profile. I had 7000+ friends including my mother and son (whom I got involved in Tagged). I had completed all the Mafia Wars levels and had over 7000 Mafia Wars family members. This is pretty serious. If I were to calculate the amount of time I've invested in Tagged/Tagged-Mafia Wars it would be significant. I don't plan to sit back and let Tagged ambiguously erase my friends and efforts. I own my own internet systems development company. I have just registered www.taggedscam.com. If I don't get resolution from Tagged SOON the site will be placed online. If your account has been heartlessly cancelled by Tagged contact me here: [email protected] We will become a voice to this big brother that will be heard!

My tagged.com account was canceled for no apparent reason and I have checked all the terms of service and the requirements and the list of all banned content to make sure I was not in violation of any of the rules/guidelines:

- None of my pictures posted are remotely pornographic, in fact the majority are photographs I have taken of trees and sunsets
- I have not harassed or threatened anyone or cyber-bullied or repeatedly used their name
- I have not given out any unnecessary information including addresses (email or locations)
- I have not done anything that even partially violates any of the rules/guidelines, let alone something to be cause for deletion

I am extremely disappointed in Tagged because this was the only possible way for me to contact some of my friends in New Zealand and now it is gone. I am also extremely let down because not only did Tagged not notify me of the cause of my account cancellation they did not reply to my very polite email I sent questioning the basis of their decision to eradicate me from the system. If you are using tagged.com as a means of communicating with others across the globe, do not rely on it for very long, as similar complaints are frequent occurrences and I have discovered that by simply googling "tagged.com" the list of complaints is almost endless.

If you are currently a member of Tagged a good alternative and reliable site is Facebook. Millions of people worldwide use it, including me, and not only are there many different settings that enable you to report and block people and content, you can also make use of thousands of different applications (games, quizzes and bumper stickers) and the number is increasing daily.

Those are just some of the benefits and reliable traits that Tagged is missing, so if you are a Facebook user and can list any more things Tagged is without, list them! We need to expand the list of faults and expose the people behind Tagged in hopes of the government recognizing the problems resulting from this ludicrous site and preventing others from being scammed and robbed.

For the improvement of the internet!

A friend invited me to join her "tagged" group. I read through all of their policies and it looked legit. I then provided my cell phone to register. They sent me a confirming text and then all hell broke loose. I started getting horoscopes sent to my cell in the form of text messages from "40544". I had no idea why I was getting these but eventually googled 40544 and replied with a STOP. I then found out they were charging my cell carrier $9.99 a month for the privilege of receiving their text spam! Within a week of cancelling 40544, I started receiving messages from Predicto from "654654". I googled that and found out they too were charging me $9.99 a month to receive their spam. What a rip off!! I called their company and complained. They claimed that I signed up and agreed to pay for their spam but I never agreed to that. If it was in their fine print somewhere I certainly didn't see it and they didn't make that clear with Tagged's confirmation text message. I'd love to see these idiots out of business and will agree to join a class-action law suit against them.
