Can I report on behalf of another?

Recently I saw someone posting a suspicious picture in a selfie thread. I suspected it to be a selfie from another user, so I screenshotted it and copied the link to that specific reply and asked the victim whether this was them using the screenshot. They confirmed. So I wanted to report it, but the entire thread was already gone. Also I cannot report it in https://similarworlds.com/support because there I cannot report on behalf of another.
Help me please.

Edit: [@admins] helpful people suggest me to tag you. Please help.

Edit2: Nuno will pick this up further. You all thank you for your help.

@Nuno Thank you, unfortunately I don't remember the owner of the post anymore, but what I have is coming your way.

DM the admins, a screenshot of the post and the user's reply confirming it was them.

Thanks for doing your part to protect the community.

If the thread has already been deleted, maybe because the victim has reported that and the thread was deleted by Admin
Classified · M
@ABCDEF7 No, the thread was down before they saw my message 😥

I'd go directly to one of the admins and show the screenshot and the conversation you had with the person. The tag might be looked at but they'll respond better on messages.

@SW-User Thank you. I'll do that if this doesn't work out.

I had no idea the site would actually police this type of behavior, if it were reported.good to know.
Classified · M
@Mindful Nuno just invited me to report it to him directly.
Lol... just for future reference - the account you need to tag is SW-admin rather than just admins. 🙂
Classified · M
@HootyTheNightOwl Okie thankies. 😄
What picture was it
Classified · M
@Nothereeeeee A slightly cropped picture, so it was a bit difficult to tell whether it was really that other user.
@Classified Good job :)

@Nothereeeeee Thank you

@Classified I tend to message Nuno and find him very helpful
Classified · M
@InOtterWords I'll wait what this amounts to and otherwise I'll message him 😃
