I've received several over the past couple of days, from several different users (I think - but I deleted them instantly so can't now check) - although I guess it could have been the same spambot using several different accounts. Anyway, they seem to have stopped now - so good work for sorting it out  Thumbs up

Yes, and action has already been taken against him. Apologies to those who have already received the spam, but I did notice that I clobbered him while he was actually online and browsing his PMs! Evil or Very Mad

... and he's apparently on a second lap - got the exact same PM from him.

Here's the culprit, in case there's any concern about getting the wrong person.
