Pinterest Scams

I totally get your suspicions... They both have a lot of followers, and I cant imagine how tedious it would be to manage 2 accounts like that though. Do you think it might not be the same person but rather 2 friends or possibly sisters, cousins? I know really close friends or relatives do this kind of stuff a lot online. Anyway I dont think there is any rules on pinterest that say you can only have one account though... I hope you can get it taken care of. I just started doing pinterest contest but I havent run into anything like this yet.

To report a Pinner

desertdance - Sweeping is a unique hobby, where we get to share our triumphs - I've never understood how winning by not following the rules was desirable.

I didn't click the links - I dislike Pinterest {gives me a headache} and I PIN only if it gives me extra entries or I'm voting for a fellow sweeper - but what do the promo rules say?

I try not to assume the worst of others & let the sponsors/JA's police their promos and just focus on what I'm doing.

However, if you feel strongly about this, as in all things, the rules are your guide - they will tell you who the sponsors/JA is/are and usually give you a means of contacting them.

Caveat - another reason I leave it to the sponsors/JA's is that there is always the possibility they will decide to utilize their marketing $$$ elsewhere if running promos becomes too much of a headache.

Do they look the same to you? Same unusual font... I have no clue how to flag, but this person is entering twice under two ID's. There is another. I focus on pinterest, so I know. But this is the most blatant.

How can this be fixed? Pinterest has no forum.
