Possible PM Spammer? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

PW54 · 01-28-2007, 10:28 AM

Hi Admin, I could not find which link to contact/report to you so I post here.
I received this PM today and don't know this person and suspect
I may not be the only one to receive PM's from this person who looks to have just joined this forum (trying to drive people to their link perhaps???) and want to alert you about this:

I received the same PM. Didnt' reply. Just deleted it. They never posted anywhere so I didn't think they were really here for the help.

I'm an admin on my friends board and we're constantly removing spammers trying to register every day. What a royal pain in the heinie, hey?

This person PM-ing us has gone beyond public posting in aforum into getting at individuals through PM's and that's a bit much. I didn't figure I was the only lucky one to receive one ... LOL ...

Thanks for bringing this to the attention of the powers that be. The only way they can hope to prevent it in the future is if they know it's happening.

ay100 · 01-30-2007, 02:04 AM

I got it too and I ignored it.
