Skout there is no way of reporting people who are being disrespectful and sending inappropriate messages.

A male that belongs to my friends was sending me inappropriate messages therefore I wanted to report him to SKOUT, but there is no option on the app to do so. The only option the app has is to block a person, which I did block Jesus Avalos (Chuy on skout.) Skout should have an option to be able to report users who are misusing the app for inappropriate behaviors.

Skout account blocked for no reason

My account was recently for no reason other than I clicked the app and tried to log on That s it. You should be ashamed of yourselves for 1 letting people on there with suck pics as there profile pic and 2 how the [censor] can you block someone for login in ffs. Look this is not fair kinda stupid and immature for blocking someone who can't log in and not letting them log on again.

Skout person using fake information

Their this streamer called Matt or @mattasslandia which he goes by but all he does is put other streamers down and make fun of them and I heard I'm talk about he made a website for the streamers which is called idiotstreamers.com where he posts information about other streamers most likely without consent. None of the streamers who encountered him likes him Because he has a black screen all the time and refuses to show his face or identity which is kinda sketchy. If you could watch his streams and look at his profile you would know what I'm talking about.

Dear skout Team,

There are so many time I try to complain or report against IKRAM KHAN(a guy who using fake location of US and he is living in Malaysia)
I saw so many times when he is using viruses hacking tricks and abusing to the others because of his premium account we can't do anything we tried to complain on your official page but you are not getting any type of response from your side.

Last couple of months he bann more than 500 accounts without any reason.
And every time he is giving warning to everyone that I will ban your account abusing by his words (like NI***A in screenshots) for peoples and their countries and their religions also.

So I am requesting you kindly suspend his account as per my below mentioned details and screenshots.
I am sending you his picture for more details conformations.

Thank you

Skout harassment and insults

I'm a member on SKOUT . I just had a bad experience on live. I dropped in on someone's live stream and that person immediately began to harass me and insult me verbally because I'm Gay. Instead of being polite I was subjected to vile abuse. This mans profile is under the name of JORDAN GUIDRY from Lafayette, Louisiana USA. He is not the first one to insult and harass me simply because I'm Gay. This man JORDAN GUIDRY should be banned from SKOUT and meet me

Skout comment boxes and check out notifications

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to you because I've encountered some problems with my account on Skout. My user name is "Just Browsing."

My concerns are about comment boxes and the check out notifications. Every time I comment on a buzz I experience having problems posting my comments. Some of my comments were not successfully posted and some of the comments were deleted automatically. Another problem is about the check out notifications. There were Skouters who sent me messages and told me that I checked them out several times and I got so confused because I didn't checked them out even once.

I hope that you could check this problem out and fix it as soon as possible. I am so concerned because some of the Skouters are already my friends and they always ask me why I didn't reply with their comments or messages on comment boxes. They thought that I ignored them.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Have a nice day!

Sincerely,

Just Browsing
