⚠️

Doxxing is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate removal of your report and a permanent ban. Sharing a contractor's personal home address, personal phone number, or private identifying information — even if you believe they wronged you — is considered doxxing. It puts people at risk of harassment and may expose you to criminal or civil liability. When in doubt, leave it out. Read full community guidelines →
