To my surprise, I found not only his and my profiles but also 3 empty listings titled Thomas T. Frost (X). See the screenshot (information not relevant to this forum post has been hidden).

The 3 links are:

https://www.proz.com/profile/3125173
https://www.proz.com/profile/2874562

None of the profiles exists.

If they don't exist, why are they listed in a search? It looks messy.

What are or were these profiles? I've only ever had my present one. Were they set up by scammers and then removed by staff?

I asked these questions to support on 16 September. They said they would refer it to site developers and get back to me. As a non-member, I can't really complain, but it would be interesting to know if others have observed similar problems.
