Members in the community can only send you private messages and invitations if you are friends with them.
If you'd like to prevent someone from sending you private messages and invitations:
1) Go to your inbox and locate a message they've sent you.
2) Open the message and click the "Block messages" link near the top of the message.
You can also block messages via a member’s profile page. Below the member's profile photo, click the “Block Messages” link.
If you think you're being spammed or feel uncomfortable about a member who has written to you, please let us know by clicking on the
Contact Us link at the bottom of any page. Spamming is against our
Terms of Service and we take it very seriously.
Ultimately, you can choose to unfriend someone by clicking the "Remove as Friend" link shown above. This will have a similar effect, since it will prevent the person from sending you private messages and invitations too.
