I've had 2 messages too.

One from the above name and another one the day before from 'deleted member' so obviously the admins are already onto it.

Best thing is to ignore the message and delete it.

received 2 also.... what can be done from this end !!! Not Happy !!!!

[titan_uranus 25,046]

The mods are clearly doing their job, since both times I've received these messages they've been from 'Deleted Member'.

[Guest melbman]

Most disappointing

I thought for a moment that I had a friend

oh well...

[pitmaster 3,582]

Finally a FRIEND!

And after blueing with RFlowerwing and Hazy.

But no...just a link to crappy porn site.

[dreamin' man 0]

yes, first of two messages I got was a porn site. don't know about the second.

[Demondeb 8]

Didnt click on the link - my rule is never to click on links from unkwnown sources so just blocked him/her/it and deleted it.

What a pain

What a pain

Normally,I don't open from sources unknown BUT when this message said from DEMONLAND and it said "personal message" I thought it would be ok.... silly me !!!! :angry:

wat about making people who sign up have a valid email address ...do we have that haha i cant even remember?

[gOLLy 401]

Just got one from "Administrator" "New Forum Rules"

[Jarka 767]

I hope the mods have been keeping a record of their IP addresses, if they're using the same one to create usernames can we ban it?

I doubt they'd be using the same one. Probably a proxy.

I got 1 from somebody called "jurdreda"with a link saying "new forum rules" but I don't know where it linked to coz I didn't click it.

I've received all the messages mentioned above. The first two I ignored but the one today with "new forum rules" had me thinking until I saw the member join date. GET A LIFE whoever you are?!?!?!?

Nobody outside of the above posters should be sending out any PMs in regards to forum rules or any other administration issues. To avoid falling into the stupid spam traps, make sure you check that the PM is not sent by any of the moderators, and if it isn't delete it.

It is unlikely that a poster you have never heard of before, or interacted with before on the forum will send you a PM, so exercise caution and delete anything that may look suspicious.

We'll try to resolve the issue as soon as we can.

Thanks

Spot on Deesrock.

The one with the subject of New Forum Rules linked to a Russian site. When you hover over a link you can generally see where it is linking to as it will appear in the bottom left-hand side of the browser window - you don't have to click on the link to see that. Saw this report on 60 minutes yesterday saying how there is a shyte-load of spam and viruses coming out of Russia at the moment, not sure if this is linked with that, but whatever it is, it is dodgy as sh*t and just don't click on anything!
