1. Delete your account
The method that most of the people are using for stopping unwanted anonymous questions is deleting their ask.fm account. They are also suggesting others to do so, or not joint in the first place.

The ask.fm people have provided the members with an option to disallow any anonymous questions. You can do this in your privacy settings. There is a checkbox asking whether you want anonymous questions or not. You can uncheck it and apply the settings. After that you have nothing to worry about.

By doing this, you would be among your friends but not connected to them. They will be posting funny questions on each other’s profiles and you will be sitting deserted due to the fear of an abusive question. There is no point of having an account then.
