Is it because you were recently red tagged as a scammer?

Lol you cannot delete your account. Just abandon it, forget about the pass and never look back. Also your account is worthless at this point, so I don't see any reasons to go through all these shits. Lastly you may use the secret question self banning method to make sure nobody else can access your account once you are gone for good.
Probably, but upon looking to its username it sounds like a name irl. I searched it only and i'm correct, many results from different socmed sites. It's a common name in India too. And yeah, it's a shame
Upon checking OP profile, it's email was already changed, i guess he is on the process of forgetting its account profile lol.
