I received an email message telling me that I have received a PM on IOW. I didn't recognize anything about it, so I logged on here normally, then checked my PMs. As I expected, there are none. Assuming others get that email, I suggest not clicking on any of the links in it.

Yeah, I had a couple from an unfamiliar source. I just deleted them
without opening them. It was from SKYPE-something? I can't remember now.

If you get odd PM's, please hit the "report" icon so the moderators can check it out....The spammer who was sending those out has been dealt with....

I'm supposed to be a moderator and I had one as well.

By the time I was up this morning, it had been removed. I clicked on the link and poof! It was gone.

I think most people did. Someone registered and sent the same 2 messages out to close to 1000 members. And the good thing about everybody getting hit by a mass mailing, as opposed a bunch of individual senders, is that Bill has tools installed on the board that enable the moderators to wipe out the offenders work, with one action.

I received two from "SkypeGod" but the PM box was already full. I guess being lazy sometimes is a good thing.
