All 3 are new accounts. None of these are the real DP. How is Yahoo allowing this to happen? This could be happening to anyone. And Yahoo doesn't do anything about it? I would hate for this to be happening to me. This is actually illegal. Pretending to be someone else.
I think Yahoo should change the way they do things so that this isn't able to happen. I think also people doing this should be charged with stalking, and harassment.
Yahoo can tell who is doing this by the ISP number. I believe they should get off their butts and have these people removed and blocked permanently.
This could be you next time.

I think everyone should report this impersonator so that they can't continue to harass everyone here. There have been several people who have been harassed, stalked and impersonated this last 6 months or so. Take back Yahoo from the Idiots.

I think we should all just continue to email Yahoo on a regular basis. Even if you don't know someone that has had this clone problem, emailing Yahoo could prevent this from happening to you. I sent an email last night after my post about the DP clone (from yesterday) was deleted. I included all of my ideas on how to prevent this problem from occurring in the future. I've yet to hear back from Yahoo, but plan on emailing them again today. Maybe if they get flooded with emails they will understand that people actually care about the YA pet community.

I am surprised that this is able to go on. Have you written to Yahoo to ask why so many people can use the same username How do I stop this person from doing this to me? Reporting them is the only way?

I tried to click on all three profile, questions you have posted & all three say, "oops". Have all three been deleted?
I know this happened to DP before, months ago, & I wonder if it is the same person. YA's should really put a stop to the cloning!!!

This sort of thing happens ALL the time on yahoo, not just on yahoo answers... has for about 10 years now, and they haven't done anything about it. Why do you think they would now?

Yup, frightening, isn't it? I really think that Yahoo needs to make it impossible to use the same name more than once, but we all know that Yahoo doesn't do anything that WE want! You appeal a violation and you get a "screw you" letter. I am getting sick of it.

Makes me really sad. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
I don't understand why Yahoo doesn't make us use unique user names here. That would prevent this. It's just silly and petty and pathetic.
Who gets this obessed with someone else to target them? I don't get it.

She could choose to take it as a form of flattery. People only imitate people who are famous or powerful. You never heard of Rich Little imitating some schmuck from the corner grocery, only the famous.
And I know you are probably too young to know who Rich Little was. I am showing my age.

The real DP is one of my contacts, I'll let her know. I noticed a couple of messages that where not hers.
Sorry, she wont accept e-mails.
