I found child pornography being sold on Patreon and I reported it to their staff per their guidelines to do so; however, every single report and e-mail that I sent them has gone ignored. I suspect she’s either incredibly naive or being coerced/victim of child grooming by an abusive boyfriend/pimp and have reported the user to multiple law enforcement agencies… but nothing.  
What should I do because it’s not fair that other creators obey the law and rules of the community yet Patreon favors her and her scam to thousands of clueless people.

Have you filed a ticket for it at Patreon help desk?

You can also contact directly at the community forum…

…or community discord…

This being developers’ and integration users’ forum, there is nothing can be done about that here.

I filed multiple tickets. They call came back as **solved** yet nothing has been done, there’s still illegal content for sale. I even contacted Weston directly who told me to report it per their guidelines to do so so their trust and safety team can receive it, yet nothing has happened and the account is still active and selling underaged content of themselves.

or whoever is running the account whether it be the girl or her pimp/boyfriend is selling illegal content of the girl.

Regardless, there is nothing that can be done in developers’ forum about that.

This help article that outlines the abuse report process may help you related to the issue you are reporting:

> **[Report content that violates community guidelines](https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/204914235-Report-content-that-violates-community-guidelines)**
>
> We have community guidelines to ensure that Patreon remains a respectful environment for a diverse range of creators and their communities. As we take this very seriously, we ask that you read this...

Apparently the results of your report will not be reported back to you but trust and security people will look into it with the creator themselves.

I’ve already done all of that. I don’t expect a reply from them telling me whatever they’ve done but for god’s sake, I expect them to either ban the account for breaking the law (and patreon rules) or at the very least remove the illegal content that’s for sale

That’s really bad. I hope the person who did that gets what they deserve. I hope that they fix whatever they Didi to their site.

I fear Patreon doesn’t care. I think because she’s grown to being a top-grossing creator on their website that they don’t need to care.

Or you just have a personal vendetta against the creator and it’s not actually what you claim it is. This isn’t the place to ask anyhow. There are several organizations you can report it to and they’ll take care of it. Just search for it on Google.
