How can I delete my MySpace account?I'm done with MySpace. AFter all the bad publicity and weirdoes that are apparently hanging out on the site, I want to just cut free and leave no trace behind. How do I do that, Dave? Well, first off can I point out that with millions of members, MySpace inevitably has some oddballs just as you would find in any group of that size. The vast majority of people on the site, however, seem to be nice friendly folk. Perhaps you need to revise your friend list rather than leave entirely? Anyway, if you are prepared to cancel and quit your account, here's how you do it. First, log in and click on "Account Settings" next to your page, then click on "Change Account Settings". You'll see: ![]() You want to click on the link "Cancel Account". Now you'll get the big warning: "WARNING: Cancelling your MySpace account will PERMANENTLY REMOVE all of your profile information from MySpace, including your photographs, comments, journals, and your personal network of friends. This information cannot be restored. You may re-register your current email address after cancelling, but you will need to rebuild your personal network from scratch." and you'll see this: ![]() If this is truly what you want to do, click on "Cancel My Account" and you'll vanish from the world of MySpace, from everyone's friends list, and similar. You can then start over, or you can leave it alone forever. Good luck to you, either way.

It's all about verification of your identity so that someone else doesn't delete your MySpace account by sneaking into your profile.

I clicked on "lost password" and entered my email address and it says it doesn't exist. Poof! My email address has been erased from their database. I emailed them about it and got the typical email they send telling me about cookies blah blah blah. Thats not my problem. The problem lies with their database. Then I tell them to just delete the damn thing. They asked for a salute so I sent them one. Its been 4 months now and my profile is still there and I can't log in. MySpace has absolutely no customer service. They suck, period.

Posted by: Thamar at July 2, 2007 9:37 PMHello, Dave, Hello. Okay so I have been phished on myspace. So it asks me to change my password. First I logged out and logged back in to make sure i was in the right site, myspace. When I changed my password, now i"m locked out. It says this: if you got locked for being phished in the last hour, it's a bug! we're working on fixing it right now. sorry about that! the mechanism to detect if your account has been phished has been very powerful for stopping phishing, but it went a little haywire just now. things should be back to normal soon! if you're wondering what phishing is, read my blog :) Now I am not sure if Tom locked me out or the phisher!! Please let me know how to proceed. At this point I'm afraid to do anything! thanks,

Posted by: Bob at November 10, 2007 7:25 PMI have the same problem, myspace is refusing to delete my account. They won't send me the confirmation email. I sent a complaint to the Better Business Bureau, and I suggest you all do the same as well. A search of "Remove Profile" results in hundreds of people who want their accounts deleted but haven't been deleted yet. If the BBB gets flooded with complaints, maybe MySpace will finally change their ways!

Posted by: me at November 22, 2007 4:04 AMIm having problems trying to log back into my myspace account all of my information is correct, but for some reason it still won't let me in. Posted by: Daniel Magwood at November 22, 2007 6:24 AMIsn't it clear to you all that myspace wants to keep you from leaving the site. It sucks! It took me more than a month and many emails to finally get my account "closed." I've run across many of the problem mentioned by other folks here. Don't worry if you haven't reached the final step of this process because it doesn't do any good even if you hit the confirmation button for hundred times. What I've got after all is this: I can no longer log in, but my profile is still on public display and I still keep on getting emails, friends requests, etc. I don't know if this site is run by the human beings or some evils. I'm thinking of an legal action against them. Do anybody know how to file a class action to against myspace? I think it should be completely wiped out!!!!!!!!!!!!! Posted by: Violla at November 28, 2007 11:34 PMIs anyone with me on this? Do anyone have lawyer friends to consult with? Myspace says it will delete our profiles completely once we confirm our account cancellation, but it's a wide lie. It sucks a big time! I think we ought to bring a legal action against Myspace if it makes it so difficult or will not close our accounts upon our requests. Do anybody know anything about how to get our problems solved besides asking Dave here - come on, it's really not Dave's problem. It's our problem that we have to get Myspace to solve for us. Don't give up fighting yet. Posted by: Violla at November 28, 2007 11:47 PMIf you want to cancel your account, just delete all your friends/comments/layouts/pictures/names/etc.. Then you will have nothing but a blank page, I have just done this myself. Posted by: tim at December 3, 2007 10:48 PMAn update on my prior comments. Myspace finally made my profile info out of the sight, and later on also removed my name. It takes so many steps and it really tries patience. So if you want to do it do-it-yourself way, just follow Tim's tips (see right above), which is a great idea. But you have to be able to login to your account to do that. Otherwise, you need to keep on emailing Myspace until they solve the problem. Just don't give up. Posted by: Violla at December 4, 2007 2:43 PMI've been trying to delete my account, too, with no luck. Geez.....guess I will keep e-mailing MySpace until I get some satisfaction.
