Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 I know this is totally OT but it _does_ have to do with Groups. I joined a motherhood list for my area (Georgia) that says it is owned by a 24 year old mother... I wrote a welcome message over a month or so ago and no one responded at all. THis totally perplexed me, as I joined so I could meet some other moms in my area to do things with in person. I looked at the member page and it turns out that the 4 members of the group are MALE --- not only that... they list their personal interests as PORN and EROTICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The old posts on the page are from women.. but aparently none of them are members anymore.. if they even were. I am SO angry. Anyone know what I am supposed to do to get this group removed from ??? I am still a member for the purpose of getting the names of the other members. ~*~ Hawke ~*~ ( ONE ANGRY MAMA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know AOL has a fraud unit that handles stuff like this so I would assume does as well. Try going to the main page of where the groups are listed and see if there is a customer service or support area. If nothing else, try to post to the list an exposing email. Best of luck. One other thought is to notify the FBI as they handle Internet porn stuff. These guys may be trying to get stuff from the members - yes, unfortunately there are some very sick and twisted members of out society. There should be a local number for the FBI in the front of your phone book. Call them and they can tell you how to proceed. Have a wonderful day.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 Welcome to the internet! I never even turn my pager on anymore becuase some Pakistani man is always trying to chat! It is the funniest thing! I swear! I can turn my paper on right now and Sanji will want to chat! You can be dicerning about choosing a good group though, by getting to know the lsit mom. She is the one that is the energy of the group! And, any guy that is so desperate, that he needs to prey on moms, well I do not even have words to say about it! ok maybe one.. loosers! Have you tried Amity Moms? I do not have the URL but I am sure someone here has it and I will tell you that it is a fine place to get together..

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 Report them to ! They would probably be responsive, especially after the kid porn stink made a few years ago . Two years ago we put e-Circles totally out of business by complaining to the site's sponsors that there were numerous kid porn groups openly swapping actual kid porn photos (yes I unfortunately saw them with my own eyes) and that the management of e-Circles refused to do anything about it. We also complained to sponsors of all other e-mailing list hosts that we found kid porn on (including E-groups - who eventually took over). Lots of these sponsor companies were outraged by this and even if management of the e-mailing list sites didn't want to listen to us, they DID listen to the withdrawing sponsors . I would THINK after all of that they'd be a little more vigilant in keeping the " smut " lists both legal and in their own corner (in the adult groups area where it belongs). Good luck! *Smile* Chris (list mom) http://www.alittleolfactory.com moonflowerhawke [moonflowerhawke] Friday, July 12, 2002 7:28 AM OT: Most Disturbing I know this is totally OT but it _does_ have to do with Groups.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2002 Report Share Posted July 13, 2002 OK I think you are over reacting... actually... I am a 26yo sahm in ga area too so I looked for this group you found... Men are pervs... and they will be for eternity... but wont shut down the group because these guys belong to it... And only ONE guy has " erotica " as an interest... They havent made any posts pertaining to porn... the group wasnt created to be a porn group... It was legit, or so it seems... And it says YOU live in Colorado... why would you want to join a GA mommies group? -PJ , moonflowerhawke@a... wrote: > I know this is totally OT but it _does_ have to do with Groups. > I joined a motherhood list for my area (Georgia) that says it is > owned by a 24 year old mother...

With all the police activity about porn rings on the net at the moment, and the fact that it is supposed to be a Motherhood list [very deceptive] I would think would be glad to be rid of them.
