Someone Stole My name!

Post by Flipz on Fri Aug 27, 2010 7:28 pm

Well, I went to create my minfig "Flipz" and found out that...someone else is using my name!! They could be running around LU, saying bad things or violating any number of rules, and they're using MY LEGO.com account name to do it! What should I do to fix the problem?

Woah. You should probably email a dispute to lego. If not, then you would have to make a new name or make a variation of it. This is weird...

They didn't hack my account, they just used my name for their minifig. I sent LEGO an in-game abuse report, do you think I should start a topic on the LMBs as well?

Definitely contact the LU support team via email, but ALSO file an in game report, so that mods on duty can maybe catch this guy online.

Well, I think my username right next to the Messageboards post should be adequate proof. Razz

Ohh, I wasn't lucky enough to get into that sadly.\

But with the Name Steal, I suggest informing the Beta mods.

Well, actually everyone can take the name they wish, the only thing is that they need to be first. Smile However, that names of the LEGO ID should be blocked for users so the users can take their own LEGO ID name.


--The idea of MSRR seems to be the best solution in my eyes.

And with an In game report, you are identified by your username automatically.
