Anyone else having this problem?

[Cindy_AL]

I received 2 emails letting me know I had a new private message. I went to my user CP to retrieve but there was only 1 pm. This particular message was a porn photo which I quickly deleted. I am not all that computer savy but was wondering if it is possible to get viruses from private messages at this site?

I haven't got anything like that (sadly )

I found the message again in my user CP. The person sending the pm was "raven riley" though I dont see this person listed as one of our members.

Yeah I got the raven riley PM too, it's not just you!

I banned raven riley the moment I got a pm from it. It seems I wasn't fast enough.
Private messages should cause problems unless you click the link with the message.

I got a "raven riley pm" as well

[janneppi]

Let us know if you get more pm's like this so we can deal with it.

I have a more important question.


She deleted porn?


I got that one too. Being that Cindys profile allows emails the robot or whatever called Raven Riley must have generated email or the automated notice did.

This is only the second time I've even got spam on this site. Much like this time I assumed that it was already reported and the person banned. It later came up in discussion in the F1 forum, and I think it was Andrea that pointed out nobody had every told any moderators until then. This time I saw the offender was already banned, so I was sure.

I looked for a way to advise the mods, much as we do with the forums posts, ie a "report post" facility, but couldn't work out how to do so.

Is there an easy way to advise?

You can post in this forum. But I agree a report PM feature would be useful.
