RE: TAGGED.COM

Unfortunately, I am sure that tagged.com inconsistencies in identifying scammer and spammer's profiles is leading to the protection of scammer and spammers profiles. On the contrary tagged.com is often harassing genuine profiles who try to "irate" scammers and spammers.

I am not alone in sharing this opinion, quoting from a tagged user " I reported two profiles last week and sent multiple emails to the tagged site. What resulted was the deleting of not only the offensive profiles, but mine as well. I can only surmise that tagged.com would rather allow the offensive profiles, than the profiles of those that report them.' (http://www.komonews.com/younews/48781517.html). The following message sent to tagged by me remains unanswered and highlights the problem. In my case my profile was unethically deleted by tagged.


"RE: STATEMENT RE CANCELLATION OF MY ACCOUNT

1) My account is important to me and it was cancelled for the following reason: "A photo you have posted to Tagged has been reviewed and found to violate Tagged's terms of use. Your Tagged account has been cancelled and can no longer be accessed."

2) I have not downloaded/uploaded any photos into my account lately meaning that my profile and its contents were approved by you. The only images I posted were those sent to scammers and spammers! You can view their messages to me. It was only yesterday that I reported a pedophile related profile to you and the FBI.

3) I did not receive the sufficient amount of warnings prior to my account cancellation.
4) Do you cancel accounts for other reasons than those you give? If there are other issues beside the reasons you have given me, please let me know as soon as possible!
5) Please re-instate my account.'

TAGGED.COM SUCKS! they deleted my site. all the messages and comments from my fiancee are gone AS ARE ALL THE COMMENTS I SEARCHED MANY HOURS FOR... ALL OF IT... GONE!. 2500 plus friends. all comments, pics, pic comments, journal, messages ... everything! GONE!
TAGGED DID THIS TWICE! TAGGED CANNOT BE TRUSTED! GET OUT AND GO TO A REAL SITE BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO YOU... YES I LIKED TAGGED. BUT WHEN U LOSE ALL YOUR STUFF... ESPECIALLY THE NEXT TIME ...YOU WILL HATE TAGGED FOR WASTING YOUR TIME. IF YOU CREATE ANOTHER SITE THEN THEY PUT A BLOCK ON YOUR COMPUTER SO YOU HAVE TO ENTER CAPCHA TO DO ANYTHING..

WIKIPEDIA SAYS THE FOLLOWING ABOUT TAGGED.COM:
A TIME magazine article called Tagged "The World's Most Annoying Website".[22] Tagged asks users for their email username and password, checks their email address books for contacts and repeatedly sends email invitations to people who are not yet on Tagged, stating that they have been "added as a friend" or that the inviter had sent them photos on Tagged. This process has drawn criticism in the technology press[23][24] and from users.[25] These emails were discussed as possible spam by Black Web 2.0.[26] The resemblance to a virus has often been mentioned, including by urban legend site Snopes.com.[27] The New York Times referred to the practice as "contact scraping" [28]

In July 2009 New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo announced his intention to sue Tagged.com for "deceptive email marketing and invasion of privacy" [29] According to the press release, Tagged.com engaged in "deceptive Email Promotions, Identity Theft, and Invasion of Privacy "

Prior to co-founding Tagged, Greg Tseng was co-founder and CEO of internet incubator Jumpstart Technologies.[30] In March 2006, Jumpstart Technologies settled with the Federal Trade Commission on alleged violations of the CAN-SPAM Act, which included a $900, 000 fine but no admission of guilt.[31]

From February 2009, Tagged.com has been blocked in Qatar by the only ISP, Qtel, after a number of complaints from the public.[32] Tagged.com had been one of the 10 most visited sites in Qatar.[33]
