Anyone else getting random PMs?
From users with zero posts... wanting to be my friend or to visit their website. I just found it odd that people are registering to PM me and never post a thread. Anyone else have this? Whats the deal with it anyway?

We have been getting it occasionally. Forward any suspicious PMs to me and the staff will discuss it.

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?
When you got it, you got it, and you must have it.
Me, I'm not the friendly sort so I don't want it.

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?
I have gotten two pm's on this site now. From two different people, wanting me to come over and join their forum. They have sent me multiple pm's on almost every majore reptile forum there is. All to join the same website. Why not just pay the money to advertise your site, like every other person in their right mind would?
Its really annoying and quite frankly its disrespectful to this forum and its members.
Pretty lousy way to go about recruiting new members if you ask me.
Anyway, I forwarded the info on to one of the admin here. Can't remember who lol.
I still hadn't heard anything back as of today though.

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?
I get the odd PM every now and then from 'new members' introducing themselves, and that's about as far as that goes. Lol, nothing with random links to other places or anything so far yet..
 I must come off as scary through private messengers, 'cuz even if i do reply they never reply back.

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?
I too got one recently from a "member" with 0 posts, just saying "hi, I'm new here, wanted to say hello" or something of the sort. I too am relatively new (and sometimes naive), and wrote 'hi, nice to meet you' back...Next, within 2 minutes my system alerts me to an attack on my firewall here at work from some sort of downloader trojan. That's the only time I've ever been attacked here at my work PC, and this site was my only browser open. Luckily here at work we have an amazing internet security system...
Be very careful with the PMs.

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?
Wow Kyle...
Ummm...
That's almost impossible, but wow.
Were there any links in the PM that you might have clicked? And can you forward it to me?

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?

Re: Anyone else getting random PMs?
I know... friendly site and all, but can we keep the useless and idle banter in the many many threads where it belongs?
Thanks
