Anyone get any Private Message spam?

#1 Unread post by totalmotorcycle »

Anyone get an PM spam? I got this PM about it this morning but unfortunately, he didn't tell me WHO sent it so I can control/ban/delete it.

If you do ever receive private message spam, please let me know RIGHT AWAY as I will ban the user and delete all outgoing PM's from that account immediately. I will also contact their IP host and the them know they are spammers using their ISP.

Thank you,

Mike

The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R

Great, it looks like there isn't any other cases of people receiving PM spam then. :D

What I did was deactivate and IP Ban that spammer (from China BTW), also went into their account and deleted all outgoing spam not delivered yet (70 of them) and deleted the 30 that were sent but not picked up (they won't arrive now). And that was that. :D

Remember if you do get any PM spam or see any spam on the forum, please let me (or another mod) know where and who it is right away by PM so I can act fast to remove it. :D

Thanks!!
