Default Virus Pm Warning!

Hello All!,

I'm not a active member here, but for the past 2 days I have been getting PM's from new members here who claim they have noticed virus activity on my PC and they want you to click a link in the PM. DO NOT CLICK ON THAT LINK! I personally haven't clicked the link, but I suspect that it actually GIVES you a virus/ a bug of some sort.

They have been coming from the following user names:

sstanle817

eleaanor575

LadyAdministrator <---- THIS IS NOT A ADMIN ACCOUNT!


They are using the subject ATTENTION! and Important Message From the administration (from the ladyadmin user).


I've noticed one account has been banned, but eleaanor and ladyadmin are both still active. I'll be PMing a real admin about this after I post this message, just didn't want anyone here to fall victim to these idiot spammers.

EVERYONE seems to get them...

A) These PM are nearly the only trafic on bord at the moment...
B) A bit more life (more posts) here would help: If the members would be active again, the moderators would have to be it too and that would make the forum cleaner again !
