Yahoo Answers is shutting down on 4 May 2021 (Eastern Time) and the Yahoo Answers website is now in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

I apologize to all the people who Need extra help.?

I will no longer be helping outside of the yahoo answers site. I have had one person who seem to have a mental issue that is deluging my email with profane language. I have tried to report this person but to no avail. I hate to have to do this to all the good people who genuinely need help but it seems to be my only recourse as Yahoo does not seem to want to block this user.

    My commiserations sir. There's always one who can't accept reality.

    I know, I volunteer on an antifraud forum & have had a similar reaction from a victim. I had to drop out of the forum for a while & kill the email account before it stopped.

    I assume you have already filtered the persons email to spam, & made a ToS abuse report. Perhaps reporting every mail you get? Although from your post, & my experience, that's probably a full-time task. Sometimes, it takes a lot to shift Yahoo into action, even with Yahoo-groups that have been proved to be operating a scam. I have absolutely no idea what it will take to get them to respond in this case.

    It's really to bad that one stupid person has caused you to do this. There are allot of us that just want to help those who need it. But the folks here will still be very thankful for your help. Keep on keeping on my friend.
