Spam PM's?

Anyone else receiving spam PM's, I've now had 2 in 2 weeks?

PM sent.

How do you know they are spam, who are they from and what are they saying, or do you know they are spam because they are offering you Sports Rolex at list price 😂

Had a couple of luncheon meat and corned beef but no spam.

Did you say something disparaging about a G-Wagen and a dodgy number plate?

Same as above

Never been lucky enough to have a pm from Skyman

Hmmm, I haven't received any either. I wonder how the spam sender determines which members are in his target market??? :dontknow: :highly_amused:

I've had the same one, sent at 04:13 this morning.

Just had this too. 😬

Yep, a spammer. I just hit the report button.

Me too. The same as the one posted.

Yep, same PM received here too.

I must recieve about 50 emails a day, the vast majority, of which, are complete and utter tosh. One extra makes no difference.

"technical hurtles"
Hilarious!

Yeah I’ve got that one first in 17 years how’s that happened ?
Paul.

Received last night - reported to the boss.

Bit like some replies on threads [emoji2539][emoji2539]

I've deleted all the PMs. banned him and added details to the "Stop Forum Spam" database. He managed to send 50 PMs before I banned him.

So, I was one of the lucky 50. Do I win a prize?

But it wasn't an email, it was a personal message sent through the forum.

Oh I had one of them a few weeks ago from Henk. I told me that he considered me "toxic". It sort of cheered me up actually.

Same here - conradbaw spamming

Hi again,

I assume this person used an email when signing up ? Is it possible this could be made known to us all so we could send him our thanks ?

No point, it would just be a throwaway account. Sending yet more spam in retribution regrettably doesn't reduce the problem.

I realised that, but worth a try, miles better than just lying down and giving in

Sadly, it's actually counterproductive. It just means that there's more useless crap floating around the email systems, which means that the servers/systems/networks/resources involved need to keep growing in size. And guess who ends up paying for that...

I've not been on in a while, There was one waiting for me too!! :eagerness:
