Reporting Suspicious Criminal Postings.

Options
On Sunday 23 Sep there was a posting in this forum titled: fake and registered passports andother identity documents.

Passports and other documents (fake or real) were claimed to be available for almost anywhere in the world.

The posting gave contact details of the sellers (email addresses and telephone numbers).

I marked the posting as Spam and it was promptly removed.

What I’d like to know is:

Does the Moderator report this sort of posting? If so who to?

Should we? If so, who to?

Reason for asking:

I'd hate to think this wasn't picked up by Law Enforcement Agencies.

    I would suggest reposting this in the site feeback section of the forum here Site Feedback
    The MSE team will be more likely to read your post there and they will be the only people who will be able to answer whether any further action is taken.

    As a long-time member you probably know this, but for the benefit of Newbies, post marked as spam by a sufficient numbers of forum members is removed automatically. The definition of "sufficient" seems to be a well-guarded secret.

    You're probably using "Moderator" as shorthand, but again for the benefit of Newbies, this forum does not have "moderators" as such. Click on the "We run the MSE Forum" link for more details.
