I have received a warning about a possible scam after a new opponent asked for "telegram number". Of course I will not give it. So how can I report it or get it checked? What to do next, this player is playing other people?

I suggest you report this to site admin, @Russ.

Just send site feedback, and mention your opponent name or game id. Thanks.

Do not interact with this person further.

I can't remember if I mentioned elsewhere, but potential scammer messages are now flagged automatically by RHP with warnings - so it is good to know the system is working.

It is working very well

Recently a fellow I have played with many times used the term "send money" relating to DHL 20 years ago.

The big red banner with a scam warning came up.
