account terminated
What I do not like how Skout is handles people being terminated. When your acount is terminated they say to send a letter to [protected]@skout.com Ok, you send a letter then you get the following email from them.
Notice this has no Skout Logo on it.

Does this violate Apple policy. On information and belief all applications on the iphone must have their own website. All applications that talk with consumers must not use a third party to send information back and forth to each other. Here Skout is using
Google Documents.
In the event you have used Google docs you are aware how easily it is to pass information back and forth to others. Once you fill out the form you never hear back from Skout. No where on the page does it not say that it is selling your information to a third party. You must fill out the form to chat on skout again is it really worth it? You decide for yourself.

profiles created from responses to craigslist ads
I was going through my spam box, as I like to remove myself from ad lists I notice I'm getting a lot of e-mail from, to reduce the incoming amount of data coming into my inbox. I happened to notice some Skout thing, and I couldn't find anywhere in the e-mail. I logged into the site with my e-mail address and a password consisted of me randomly pressing keys, and it logged me in. I was shocked to find that a photo I had used to reply to a few craigslist ads was being used on this site, and a marginal amount of incorrect information including my age, and my location, though it did list the correct state I lived in. Keep in mind, I NEVER signed up for an account with this website, and had no clue what it was before today.
I contacted the support e-mail for the site, as there was no option to close my account AT ALL (most internet dating sites like these, or anything you can sign up for, has an option to close your account), and informed them of this, and threatened to pursue legal action. They removed the photo, but not the profile, which is whatever because it doesn't include any personal info about me.
Clearly there is some sort of advantage of people who work for their website, to snake/steal photos from people on craigslist, to create profiles to up their user count, like so many websites of this caliber use. It's pretty fishy that this site doesn't currently provide an option to close an account, plus I was never provided a password in the spam e-mails I received. I have no plans to pursue legal action, as the photo was removed, but I feel it's noteworthy enough to leave a complaint on here so that if other people notice the same thing happening, it can build up. I will be leaving an ad on craigslist next, informing their users of this issue.
I was verify 6 weeks ago cannot get back on why did photo people try get me cannot get my I'd nigelajvickers1 [protected]
