How do I report Profiles that violate Yahoo! Personals guidelines?

If you discover a profile that violates our guidelines, you can report it to by clicking the "Does this ad violate our guidelines? Let us know." link located at the bottom of every Yahoo! Personals profile. You'll be asked to fill out a form describing the problem with the profile.

Please note that the most common reasons for reporting a profile are:

  • Email address(es), URLs, or other personal contact information is contained within the profile text.
  • Profiles or photos contain adult-oriented content (e.g., nudity, overtly sexual language or images, etc.).
  • The profile contains obscene, offensive, illegal, or otherwise objectionable material.
  • The profile solicits multiple partners or additional partners for existing couples (married or otherwise).
  • The profile contains copyrighted material.

We're sorry, but we cannot take action against profiles due to any personal conflicts you might have had with the profile creator. If you feel you are being harassed or threatened, please fill out this form.

Due to the high volume of responses we receive, we are not able to respond personally to your reports.
