Virus Spammers around the Forum

Post by Lizzaroro »

Not sure if it's the right board to post on but as soon as I opened up my inbox I got a private message from this site, this was the message:

I'm not sure weather it's a Virus spammer or not, has anyone else gotten this, i'm a bit cautious.
I'll come back once I have something creative

This is at least the second wave, if you will, of this PM spam, so we still have the thread used to report the first, so you can use it for this. I expect it will be seeing a lot of use in the future.

But yes, this is a spammer; a virus spammer is harder to determine, since I don't think anyone has been stupid enough to actually click on the link spammed to find out, but it's probable.

This user has been noticed and gomanga's real forum administrator has been notified. Thank you for helping us help you.
