Spam PM's to Members

#1

Post by Charles L. Cotton »

We have discovered spamming software XRumer that doesn't make posts, but sends PMs. Please report any such PM's so we can delete this new version of a spammer.

Thanks,
Chas.

To this point, this is the only spammer we have identified as using this new spam software. We hope it's the first and last.
