I don't often do this, but would like to thank GR for their prompt removal of my BIL's tree & details from this site.

My BIL died 3 years ago, and neither my sister nor I realised he had an account on here. My sister has tried to cancel all internet accounts he had - but some are difficult as they want his password!
A couple of weeks ago, after the major scamming of Hotmail, my nephew received a spam e-mail from his dead dad!
This led me to checking this site and friends reunited. My sister has put a message on FR about his death, but I found my BIL had started a tree here.
I contacted GR, including his number, and they rapidly cancelled his account ,

So, thank you GR
