hi barbie19022002

On the right hand side of the screen you have a space for your picture. There's a down arrow.  Click that and choose privacy.  Then set these so you can keep him out.

Do not reply to the emails!!!

I'll check out who at G_+ you can report this to.

Many countries have people who will help protect you.  eg. In the UK there's a phone line and a website.

Re: Please Help me...

On your Yahoo account there's a help button.  Click that and check out the advice about internet safety.  Also how to block emails you don't want. 

If he has emailed you, he must have given away his email address.  Keep a record of it so you can report him.  But don't actually ever respond to his emails.  And make sure you haven't put your address anywhere on-line.  And do tell your Dad.  After all, you haven't done anything wrong so he shouldn't be cross with you; just with this horrid guy. 

I'm 'subscribing' to this thread so I can keep an eye on any more posts you need to make.  If anything else happens, or you need more help with blocking, post back here.

Re: Please Help me...

Why is he doing so?  He sounds like a bad man and his intentions may be horrid.  You need to be aware that there are some nasty people in the world and the internet has given them a way to remain anonymous while doing this sort of thing. 

When you have an email you don't want you can click the spam button.  Any more from the same person should go straight into the spam folder and you can just ignore them.  This doesn't delete them though.  That's so you don't accidentally put something important into spam.  You'll still have to go into the spam folder to delete them.  But you should be able to delete a whole load in one go.

There's a uk site for child protection.  It's intended for adults so some of the news might be scary for you, but here is a link to the child page:

Sounds like he hasn't kept his profile secret.  But he may be lying.

Re: Please Help me...

Glad you've blocked him.  His pic may look nice but that's easy to fake.  Some older men make up teenage profiles so they can get girls to think they're safe.  You need to be suspicious about people on the internet.  They may not be what they seem.

Got to go now; back later.

hi barbie19022002

Have you tried setting up a filter?  The one illustrated below should apply the filter to incoming emails and automatically delete any from the chosen address.

Just did a google search.  Looks like this is who he'd like to be:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarwar_Ahuja

Unlikely the real actor would be playing this game with you.

Re: Please Help me...

Most likely it is am impersonator. I highly doubt that even the scummiest of actors would do such a thing.
