hello guys, be very careful with LindaEdwards account because it is a scammer.
She sent me an email saying that my account would be suspended for security reasons.
To solve the problem I would have to send my credit card information.

I reported to bricklink support but they did nothing. This account is still active

Once the account is reported here
https://www.bricklink.com/problemMember.asp
Bricklink will take action once they get to the report, there is a massive amount
of spam over these past few weeks so they are likely still dealing with those
accounts

They are acting on the account reports in less than 24h for now.

I think I've recently read that anyway those 0FB can't send messages
(again) anymore, so the fact the account is still alive doesn't mean it can
do any scam of this kind.

So I wouldn't mind: BrickLink has taken care of it one way or the other which
may not be apparent to us.

Indeed they can lock accounts in the backend only, also they might not be able
to unregister them instantly as DSA says you have to offer an appeal process
timeframe.

Looks like this account has been hijacked, since the feedback shows only positives.

Tip of the hat to the problem center team. That account was closed I'm sure
within minutes of my pointing it out.

Thanks for continuing to keep us safe.
