is it just me?
 
or does other folks get porno messages and fake passport messages in their pm box on this site:eek:!?

Janet 08-06-2011 04:42 AM

You're not the only one Deb, let us know who the sender is so we can ban him/her. It won't stop them from using another name, but hopefully they'll get bored and go away. I've been getting quite a few of them lately.

judy 08-06-2011 06:39 AM

SilviaBona left me 2 about buying counterfeit passports. I really can't think of any use for these, so I deleted!

Lindsey 08-06-2011 07:06 AM

I've gotten 6 in the last couple of days... I'll go get their names...

Lindsey 08-06-2011 07:07 AM

I had the same one Judy had, plus tarantonotina and samooobooo

Janet 08-06-2011 07:46 AM

I've already taken care of the one Judy and I had...I'll go and check out the others now.

DianaB 08-06-2011 03:39 PM

Janet, I noticed that you banned one for a few days. I've been banning them permanantly!!!!

Janet 08-06-2011 04:27 PM

Yes....I just banned one for a few days by mistake. I've got the name wrong down and will permanantly when his/her time is up. I usually ban them permanantly too, but had another brain...well you know....LOL

judy 08-07-2011 05:36 AM

Thanks to Janet and Diana!!!

It is so nice that you both are banning these creeps!

DianaB 08-07-2011 03:42 PM

I thought that you probably meant to ban them permanently!!!

JJJ 08-09-2011 03:57 PM

Thanks for keeping these weirdos out :thumbup:

Janet 08-09-2011 04:09 PM

We're trying.... :)

Marilyn 08-09-2011 05:43 PM

I just deleted 10 of them without opening. I didn't think to ban them. Will have to do that next time. What a pain!!! Don't know what they think they are accomplishing!!

DianaB 08-10-2011 05:51 AM

Actually, Marilyn, Janet and I are the ones to ban them. We are moderators now but Janet actually does most of the work!!!

gja1000 08-10-2011 07:52 PM

I'm getting PM spams from a store, Burbury, I think????

judy 08-11-2011 07:21 AM

It is spamming season!
:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

DianaB 08-11-2011 08:41 AM

I've been getting those too. I can't figure out how to get rid of them. I sent a question to Janet about it so we'll see if she can figure it out. If now we'll have to contact Admin about it.

Janet 08-11-2011 09:24 AM

Same here.....I've been trying to get rid of 'it' and no luck. Show 'it' has a member, but can't find 'it'. Not sure what the next step is.

Janet 08-12-2011 04:58 AM

I rec'd another one this morning from the 'spam alert' person. This time I contacted Administration and told them that Diana and I were having a heck of time getting rid of this person. Hopefully they will help.

gja1000 08-12-2011 06:33 AM

Yep, I got another one this morning from Burbury Outlet Online. Seems pretty odd.

DianaB 08-12-2011 08:58 AM

That's funny, Janet!! I just sent them an e-mail too!!!

deb22 08-12-2011 12:49 PM

thanks guys...:)...thought it was just me...lol

Janet 08-12-2011 02:13 PM

In did get a reply fro admin. But will have to wait until I get home and use my laptop.

DianaB 08-13-2011 08:09 AM

I did get another spam e-mail from this guy. I gave them an infraction and set it for "never". Maybe that will take care of them.

I didn't get a message from Admin. Hmmmm........

Marilyn 08-13-2011 06:54 PM

I have three new messages from:

Burberry Outlet Online
***SPAM PLEASE ALERT ADMIN***Test

Janet 08-13-2011 06:59 PM

Okay, Administration asked for a copy of the PM and a link to their profile page so I sent it to them. I haven't heard anything back from them yet. I sure hope Administration can do something about the 'Spam Alert" bandit, I'm tired of getting PM's from this person as much as the rest of you.

gja1000 08-15-2011 12:39 PM

New spam message in my inbox!

judy 08-15-2011 05:43 PM

Same here, Gayle.

The member is trorUnsut

Janet 08-15-2011 06:08 PM

Didn't know the name of yours Gayle, but banned the one for Judy.

Not sure what is going on here. We very seldom every had spam crap and now it seems we can't get rid of them fast enough. I just don't understand how it shows on the Home Page that they are a member and when I try to find them....they don't exist. Sure wish they would move on.

gja1000 08-15-2011 06:31 PM

As far as I can tell the name on my spam was Boxe

DianaB 08-15-2011 07:03 PM

I've been getting rid of some of them. Hopefully it works!!! I'm tired of them too!!!

judy 08-16-2011 07:30 AM

Can somebody post without becoming a member? This sounds like a new problem. Maybe Admin can help you both with how to handle this.

gja1000 08-17-2011 04:17 AM

a new PM from promedoff

judy 08-17-2011 06:20 AM

antiosuwas
Guest

This is what the sender of my last strange pm looks like. Can a guest send a pm?

DianaB 08-18-2011 11:29 AM

Ok....Gayle, I took care of yours.

Judy, if you will forward your message to me I'll see what I can do.

judy 08-18-2011 02:20 PM

Thanks, Diana. Done!

DianaB 08-21-2011 12:14 PM

Sorry. I couldn't find their name. I'll have to wait until they send me a message. They are so tricky!!!

Gina 08-21-2011 04:25 PM

I have not been on for awhile I am getting the same spams as you ladies. I deleted several this evening. So ANNOYING!

Janet 08-21-2011 04:37 PM

They are annoying Gina. We try to catch them as quickly as we can, but they seem to multiply like rabbits.

judy 08-22-2011 05:59 AM

They will be gone soon. As long as you and Diana ban most of them, and we ignore the rest and just delete them, whatever it is they are after will not be given to them.

I do wonder though - why do they post this nonsense? None of us care about whatever they are posting. Maybe it's a code?

We could advise them to go to another (unnamed) forum!
