Spam PMs

[austrianclavey]

Hi all,

posting this in General for now - will move to off topic later when hopefully most people have read it.

In the last few weeks some people have reported some private messages they had received.

Unfortunately some random spammers make it through the vetting process, and rather than post and get deleted/banned they have now started to send private messages to forum members.

Please do not follow any links in those messages and report them to an admin straight away (there is an option to do so) - we will ban these people right away.

thanks,

Andreas

Thanks Andreas, that includes anything that might say Admin or Forum Admin or anything that might look official. We don't PM.

Just bumping this up as again we are experiencing spammers getting through to private messaging under names such as forumadminstrator, etc. Please delete and be assured that the team would not contact you this way. Working to get patch to repair.
