I noticed a new page on the MySpace site, http://www1.myspace.com/misc/RemovingChildProfiles.html. The page is titled "Instructions for Deleting a MySpace Account." You can get to this page from links on the Safety Tips for Parents page.
The new RemovingChildProfiles.html page summarizes the standard deletion process, and the secondary method where you clear out the information in the account and enter "Remove Profile" into the "About Me" section of the profile (see Cancelling Your MySpace Account for a detailed description of these procedures).
The page also provides a new email address for parents or anyone who wants to delete a MySpace account, but is having problems doing so: deleteaccount@myspace.com .

Tracy – in this case, you need to be able to find your child’s MySpace page. Then, copy the URL address (at the top of the browser) and send an email to customercare@MySpace.com explaining the situation. Include the URL of your child’s MySpace page. There’s a good chance they’ll take care of the situation, especially if your child is under age (they’re supposed to be at least 14 to have a MySpace account).Posted by Kevin Farnham on 16 December 2006 - 04:03
