Spam Control Team
The object of the Spam Control team is to keep the members of the Freecycle Network free from being scammed for money.
The team also deals with inappropriate posts, spamming, foul and abusive language maintaining the basic rules of Freecycle that everything must be “free, legal and appropriate for all ages” and generally keeping the site safe for the members.
We have access to a vast amount of the behind the scenes areas of the org. which we use to check out any posts or members that need looking into.
This is also backed up by us having our own technician within the group.
When we come across a scammer we immediately remove the scammer's account (which blocks then from rejoining MyFreecycle with the same username/email address) and we always keep a log of our actions.
The team work very closely together and have our own “Yahoo” hosted group as well where we often discuss various posts to ensure that we are taking the right actions.
We pass on many inappropriate posts to the relevant Group Outreach Advisor of the group concerned for attention.
If a member or moderator spots a scam or spam type post they can email spamcontrol@freecycle.org and we will investigate the members' concerns, reporting back to them and taking any necessary actions.
Chris and Shaz head up the Spam Control Team and report to the Information Coordinator.
Member Support Team
The Member Support Team is a dedicated team of five to six volunteers who assist members with all aspects of their MyFreecycle accounts, including:
- signing up
- logging in
- joining a group
- posting
- leaving a group
- deleting their MyFreecycle account
Members initially contact MyFreecycleAdmin@freecycle.org, which sends an autoresponse email with basic information. Members who require additional assistance are directed to MyFreecyclesupport@freecycle.org, which is a staffed email address. The majority of individual responses are from basic templates, but some require specially directed responses.
