Another spam PM
This time from a Miss Rita Benson, who appears to have created a user account under 'ritabenson' which as I write is still live.
A phishing e-mail. Deleted of course, but how many more did the spammer manage to send? Phil

Re: Another spam PM
Six in total as far as I can tell, before it was reported and she was banned.
If anyone ever receives any of these please report them by clicking the red triangle icon, as that's the quickest way of getting our attention. |

Re: Another spam PM
However, please don't continue to report these PMs once we know about them, as this clogs up the message reporting system. If the user's status is shown as 'Banned' then action has already been taken.
