Did another search and found my profile, and a forum posting that supposedly is mine (heading from a proz posting, the rest is b......t, I never end a message with "Cheers") on something called babelport.com. Tried to send a threatening message, but but the button in the contact form was only a non-clickable image, so no luck.

Same as with the other site, all this seems to relate to old date from proz that has only recently appeared on various sites. Makes me wonder how proz disposes of old data. ▲ Collapse
